Has Wolverhampon (EGBO) really lost the plot???

[DH T.11]

Does anybody really know what is happening at Wolverhampton??
Seems like Halfpenny Green is dead, But what is happening? is it going to go Full ATC, is it having an ILS? Is it extending the runways?


Come on guys, lets get some answers, Bobbington Estates don't seem keen on giving any.

Wolverhampton? Where's Wolverhampton?!

[100LL]

Think its near Halfpenny Green. Whos the plonker that walks about in a dayglo jacket. Went in there a last year in a 421B and he said that if i buy 200Lts of avgas he would Knock me 25% of my landing fee DOH!!!

[DH T.11]

It is Halpenny Green, just had a name change.

and for your information, the half price landing fee with fuel has been stoped, much to the delight of many pilots who read that you still can in their Poolies.

More news, Jersey's ILS has been purchased for Wolverhampton, DME is now fully operational.

Just thought somepeople would be interested,

The guys at Le Mans last week, hope you didn't get wet and end up sleeping in a PA28 like me! :P

Wolverhampton international Eh? what a bloody joke! might as well call Cranfield Milton Keynes international

Every time I've been to Halfpenny Green it's been expensive and even the ruddy cafe was shut!. Much better to fly a few miles further and land a Sleap - a lovely friendly place with low landing fees and a wicked all day fry up!!

[FOZZY]

If you do go to Sleap can you give those nice people at Shawbury an early call, rather than a bomburst. Thanks

Thanks for calling those of us at Shawbury nice, we are here to help.
