Scuse me but aren't NDB's a relic from pre-history? The USA has plenty of ILS and VOR's though! Maybe if the UK identified GA then there would be VOR's and ILS's at GA airports. Or am I being too radical in my thoughts here about UK aviation? Incidentally, went down to my local airport yesterday (Shoreham) is there a problem with flying in haze or did everybody have the day off? If Shoreham was a US airport, it would have been busy! I think that is a reflection on the sad state of UK GA.
Post thought: doesn't Winterhaven have an excellent adjacent airport (Lakeland) where there is not only an ILS where not only is the tower crew super friendly, there is a cheap and excellent restaurant and where landing fees are unknown?
Now why do people go to the USA to have fun?
