Which of the following most accurately describes the problem?

THE 68 canny hauliers and bus operators who form the Ayrshire Road Transport Group Training Association have in ten years amassed enough money to pay for a new £150,000 heavy goods vehicle driver training establishment on one of the former runways of the disused Heathfield airfield.

With the help of the Road Transport Industry Training Board the group began in a small way at Prestwick airport in 1970. It is now one of 69 training associations and is among the 44 that belong to the GTA/RHA/RTITB Management Training Scheme.

Many of them would have great difficulty in operating if there were no disused airfields, so perhaps indirect benefits of the Hitler war still linger.
