AC-DC, Totally agree - more businesses should appreciate the value of goodwill. If they cannot waive the fee altogether at least reduce it to a reasonable level. Blackbushe has seen more visitors in the past 2 months than ever subsequent to reducing w/e fees to £5 for singles until end Feb - lets hope it continues - I am based there but it is so nice to see other people and a variety of aircraft arriving. It is this type of attitude that keeps GA alive.
BTW - La Baule - What a great place - have been there twice now, last time Aug Bank Holiday last year. We had 5 aircaft with 16 people arriving "in convoy". The treatment was excellent - even to the extent of the chap behind the desk putting up with us asking him to take a group photo on 16 separate cameras of us all in front of the museum hangar - this photo adorns my desk at work!
