Perhaps if you guy's feel strongly enough about this you could start a campaign to introduce take off fees at all UK airports
I wouldn't mind if they did - provided they deducted the cost from the current landing fee.
In fact they can also introduce fees for walking to my aircraft and for talking to the airfield cat - provided that the
overall fee is reasonable.
Almost everyone on here will, I should imagine be supremely indifferent as to WHAT they are charged for. They are much more interested in HOW MUCH they are charged in total and I really don't resent the tenner than I paid when I was last there.
