The statement said it was 'virtually the same with some minor amendments'.
These were 'removing hardstanding on the overspill parking area and instead including Grasscrete (or similar) access 6m into the site to meet highway requirements and retaining the wider field as per existing'.

The new plans included removing the small area of hardstanding that was proposed adjacent to the runway and Grundons and removing the pedestrian route along the south of the eastern runway parking area and including a marked zone on the runway itself.
There would be one access to the eastern runway instead of two.
