The Ultimate Airport Survey

Let's keep it simple. Here's the survey to end all surveys on airport expansion.

The QLDC and QAC are about to spend many tens of thousands of dollars, and 12 months, on complex airport expansion surveys. Crux believes things don't need to be that expensive, that lengthy or that complex.
