Zlin,

We'd all love to just fly and not worry about the politics! Unfortunately, its often unavoidable if you need 'permission' from an aerodrome operator to go about your uncontentious business... Sywell isn't the only airfield whose management have made some rather strange decisions in recent months.

Perhaps the answer is to bin out of light aviation, its little fiefdoms and little people, and confine ones aviation to grown up professional aviation - I've certainly been tempted. Unfortunately, little aeroplanes are where much of the fun is, so I suppose the answer might just have to be to grin, bear and observe the politics with semi-detached disinterest.
