Forgive me for going off on a slight tangent, especially since I'm not all that familiar with the details of this particular airfield, but:
It has now become apparent that from the outset Mr Pooler intended to use his airstrip as a commercial venture. Mr Pooler is inviting people to pay a membership fee to join a flying club which is not even situated on a licensed aerodrome
I didn't realise this wasn't allowed. An airfield doesn't have to be licensed to have a club based on it (Popham and North Weald immediately spring to mind). And as far as I'm aware, there are no specific pre-requisites for setting up a commercial venture such a flying club - I thought the restrictions on making money which apply to the PPL only apply to activities where the person concerned is actually flying???
