EAST Hampshire MP Damian Hinds is continuing his opposition to TAG Farnborough Airport's airspace-expansion proposals, following the publication of its first consultation report.

But critics say it could seriously impact on users of Class G airspace (uncontrolled) in the wider area, as well as increasing noise overhead across much of East Hampshire.
