I have heard a rumour that the Americans might be moving out of Fairford Airbase, so that might go private like Kemble did, in which case it could be situated there.

incase anyone didnt know, Kemble Airfield is now called "Cotswold Airport"
Last time I was in South Cerney was with a coach load of troops for Iraq. It was mainly American then. I understand the Americans moved out last year as did the RAF Movements Sqdn. I heard it was now shut as far as the military was concerned.
Info came through military sources.
I also heard that since renaming Kemble as Cotswold Airport, it was to be developed for more civilian arrivals/departures and may no-longer be available for traction engine rallies etc.,
