T & Gs in USA

Echo the sentiment about going to the US. Have just got back from Colorado and did a few circuits at Meadowlake as part of my Flight Review. Could have carried on all day (3 clicks for the automated weather) and all night (6 clicks for the runway lghts) for free and the guy I was with was horrified when I asked how much a landing fee for a visiting aircraft was.

"If we charged 'em they wouldn't come .." was pretty much the sentiment.

I was amused when as part of my ground review I as asked if "We Brits" still refered to them as "Circuits and Bumps".
