What year was the act which ended scheduled airland service at London-Corbin Airport passed?
London-Corbin Airport London-Corbin Airport (IATA: LOZ, ICAO: KLOZ, FAA LID: LOZ) , also known as Magee Field, is a general aviation airport located in Laurel County, Kentucky, three nautical miles (6 km) south of the central business district of London and about 12 miles north of Corbin. The airport is operated by both cities. It is not currently served by scheduled airline service, though service was once available on US Airways Express dba Air Kentucky and Tennessee Airways. Prior to the passage of the Airline Deregulation Act, the airport was served by Piedmont Airlines (1948-1989) turboprops, including the Fairchild Hiller FH-227 and the NAMC YS-11.
Airlink (helicopter shuttle service) Airlink was the brand name of a helicopter shuttle service which ran between London's two main airports, Gatwick and Heathrow, between 1978 and 1986. Operated jointly by British Caledonian Airways and British Airways Helicopters using a Sikorsky S-61 owned by the British Airports Authority, the "curious and unique operation" connected the rapidly growing airports in the years before the M25 motorway existed. Although at one point the service was granted a licence to operate until 1994, the Secretary of State for Transport intervened and revoked the licence with effect from February 1986—by which time the continued existence of the link had become "a highly controversial issue" debated by Members of Parliament, airlines, airport operators, local authorities and many other interest groups. No similar service has operated between the airports since Airlink's cessation.
