And how would you propose you pay for:

ILS on both ends of the runway
NDB
DME
Radar (including LARS cover)
Runway lighting
Full time fire cover (cat 5)
ATC staff

Need I go on?

I've been to less better equipped places that charge more. Or would you rather that sort of airfield closed and left people with nowhere to divert to when the average unequipped field is closed due to weather

Get a life - or at least a lesson in economics

(and this from someone who flies out of Manch! How much would they have charged Charlie Zulu - nothing, because without a runway slot he wouldn't have got in!)
