Southampton?

What's the deal with Southampton these days? A friend of mine (Sam, aka Trafficcontrol) wants to fly into Southampton in a C172 to meet some friends and possibly take them flying as well.

I recall hearing that they pushed out based GA a/c, so was wondering if they are still "friendly" towards visitors in light aircraft? Are the landing feees exhorbidant? AIP indicates mandatory handling required for all non-GA so sounds like its probably OK, but interested to hear if anyone has recent expereince of the place.

Many thanks!

Andy
