Handling

Sympathise about high cost of landing - one of my long held beefs - however at Newquay or, to be accurate, St Mawgan, it is unavoidable 'cos it is a military base and you can't allow any old Tom, Dick or Osama in. There are cheaper ways to fly to Cornwall albeit with some distance to cover to get down to Newquay. Like I say I usually get totally miffed at mandatory handling (at places like Newcastle I think it's a crime) but at NQY it is a vital element or all GA would lose access to this nicely located airfield. Good service from ATC, btw.
