Blackpool "Intercontinental" Airport

Little fly out to Blackpool on Saturday last in my trusty PA28....good flight and 1st time up the MCT LLR [No probs there]. Landed Blackpool to be met by a marshaller which was a 1st for me As I was looking at him through a propeller disc I hoped the brakes still worked.

Anyway parked up outside Hangar three as directed shut down and then escorted into the office of Pool aviation at the back of the hangar. Very welcoming, very plush with "free" coffee and a pilots lounge....so whats the problem? Well the landing fee including VAT was £39!!! So much for the free coffee.

Be warned
