The airpark covers 124 rai, and has an air strip with a road running round it, a small aircraft hangar and a club house.
The original vision was for plots on either side of the runway to be sold for buyers to build homes with “garages” for their aircraft.
Prime mover Suchard Raksangob told The Phuket News today (August 6) that he is willing to sell all or part of the project. He said that sales have not been up to expectations; so far, deposits have been received on just five plots.
“So we are looking for investors, for all of the Airpark, or possibly for part of it, as co-developers. Our real intention is to clear the bank loan.
“It would be a very good investment. It’s a huge land bank; we have more than 50 land titles.”
Meanwhile, Mr Suchard’s dispute with Swedish investor Adrian Held rumbles on – there is another court hearing scheduled for August 16. Mr Held originally put about B41 million into the Airpark.
“It’s a difference of opinion,” Mr Suchard said. “He wants more shares for his investment than we agreed to. The court has to decide.”
