It was announced on 2 July 2013 that the airfield had been sold to a company belonging to local aviation enthusiast, Geoffrey Lynch,〔("Old Buckenham Airfield sold to Geoffrey Lynch OBE" ) ''Eastern Daily Press'', 2 July 2013〕 by Morgan Stanley for an undisclosed price. Morgan Stanley had become the owners when they purchased the portfolio of loans which owned the airfield from the Irish National Asset Management Agency.〔Simon Packard ("Morgan Stanley buys UK real estate loans from Ireland's NAMA" ), ''Bloomberg'' 23 March 2012〕 Wilkins was retained by Lynch following the purchase and continues to manage the airfield. Lynch has stated that he intends for the airfield to continue in use and plans expansions. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Old Buckenham Airport」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
