PLANS for the return of a regular airline service on Skye – which could boost the area’s economy by almost £47 million – were given the green light last week.
At Highland Council’s Planning, Development and Infrastructure Committee meeting on Wednesday, councillors approved a 104-page business plan to reopen the Broadford Airfield in Ashaig and committed up to £30,000 over the next two years to deal with the critical aspects of taking the project forward.
