Stop knocking Redhill !
I have just discovered this website and have found a plethora of messages telling of how horrible Redhill Aerodrome is.
As someone who learned to fly at Redhill a few years ago and also someone who flys there a lot now I think that some of the comments are a little unfounded.
Redhill Aerodrome is a charming, grass airfield used by some of the frendliest folk around.
There have been problems there. For example the reduced opening hours last Summer were rather inconvenient, the landing fees seem a little steep for a relatively small grass airfield and there was a controller whose temprament was perhaps not ideally suited to Redhill - but he has now gone.
Philip the Senior controller, quite a nice chap left and has now come back. Hopefully 2002 will be a good year for Redhill.
