The Gerald's Airport has been renamed the JohnOsborne Airport. The Airport has been welcomed during the height of the volcanic crisis in Montserrat. The fact that much people did not take kindly to the Boat or the heilcopter which was the means of travel at that time.However there was much controversy stemming from acquirng the land to building the airport. This was not the facility most Montserratians envisaged, it was much smaller, the airstrip much shorter and the list goes on. The vision of a state of the art airport with vast amount of land and the opening up of venues for Jobs, housing, and a Golf Course would have been a big boost for the economy in the Thatch Valley area. Sadly this was short lived but gladly Montserrat still has SKY BLUE DAYS.
