Alderney Airport

Ian Taylor says he is feeling positive after deputies agreed to explore improving Alderney's runway.

The Policy and Resources Committee will work alongside Alderney States to finalise a proposal.

Guernsey Ports says work to replace the current portacabin could happen early this summer.

States members say people want change following two resignations and chief executive's departure.

Aurigny says a plane experienced "technical difficulties" and had to be taken out of service.

Policy and Resources has warned there will only be "losers" in these proposals.

Three local people have set out an eight-point plan for future air services from Alderney Airport.

The experts include runway construction specialists, archaeologists, and soil contamination advisors.
