I do not bash Norwich for the sake of it.
There are some wonderful small airports I frequent around the world. Most of the commentators here are airline spotters and ‘enthusiasts’ but not pilots. In reply to Nick I suggest you take a look at why Norwich Airport gets such bad reviews. I speak as someone who has spent a small fortune on fixed wing and helicopters over 35 years across the globe. I think that entitles me to post fair comment.
You post as a non pilot on what is a pilots forum.
What I do take umbrage at is the rip off airport development fee that has delivered nothing in over a decade.
Norwich is par for the course compared to many third world countries I visit.
As a so called ‘International ‘ airport it is a joke. Less space than the nearby B and Q shed and the facilities are abysmal. The management don’t care because the general public are peripheral to the industry they serve in the North Sea.
The two major players that keep the place operating are the oil and gas industry and KLM. Both are interrelated in terms of a business model.
What impact Brexit will have on KLM remains to be seen.
If KLM ever close their Norwich operation the airport is finished.
