Used to be a member of a flying group that had it's own airfield. We charged a not very large landing fee, sold some fuel and made peanuts. Then our finance chap had a brainwave. Scrap landing fees, reduce the price of the fuel and serve Rombouts coffee. Everyone said 'won't work'. Result - profits quadrupled!

Mid you, you should have seen what we charged for the coffee
