Colin's post did answer this They are the ones, which at some time, were sponsored by the Government as "London" airports. But they aren't sponsored by the Government any more I'm sorry if I'm being a pest about this, but I really am curious: how was "official" declared. What does "sponsored" mean? I was using the word loosely to mean "owned by". But I didn't say that because I couldn't remember if BAA was privatised before STN was developed into a major airport. It was still a government body at the time. Colin Bignell.
