MOD strapped for cash?
Been supporting the Dawn to Dusk Spitfire challenge which requires a PA28 to visit as many airfields connected with the Spitfire as poss in 15 hours. Its for a charity called Flying Scholarships For the Disabled. Being in the RAF, even though a groundie with a mere PPL I thought what a top idea. One of the early Presidents of the charity was Sir Douglas Bader so you would have thought the MOD with all that connections RAF/Bader/Spitfire would have waived landing fees?................not on your nelly they are being charged landing fees of £15 a time plus VAT. I hope the extra income is used wisely..............sorry I ll slap myself for that last comment!
