A reader says future generations of Bristol residents will "regret" the decision to build on Filton Airfield rather than bring it back into use.
The runway closed almost a decade ago in 2012 after 100 years of flights there, including the historic UK test flight of the Concorde in 1969, and was sold for development.
It is now a building site in the midst of one of the region's biggest housing and leisure projects - the new Brabazon neighbourhood will deliver up to 3,675 homes there, while the former Brabazon hangar will become Bristol Arena.
