If Elstree call themselves Elstree radar, why not ask for FRS?

Nah, he was talking about sitting at the hold on the ground. I went into Elstree the other day to pick up Drauk and the radio guy was as miserable as sin as ever. If he hates the job that much why not go and get another??
We have Pilot Operated lights at our place and they cost me a beer to run. Came back from Le Touquet last night(twice in 2 days now!) airways in the dark and very comforting to know there were no restrictions.
I do seem to recall that LFAT made a charge for putting on the lights as well?
