It is a shame to loose such a spot for viewing, but gaining another one is great too.
No matter what happens there will always be people who are interested in planes whether it is photographing, logging, videoing or just watching them take off and land. Perth airport has set up a wonderful area along with detailed descriptions of the airport layout, aircraft that are based at the airport and then anything else that drops in from time to time.
I personally would like to see perhaps something permanent set up at either Sheps hill, or in the long term car park (VOR field). However there would have to be some investment into those area's with little or no return on that investment.
