Tim. I've just noticed you latest post. That price seems to be about the same area as the figure they gave me but £2400 per year is still a lot ( and more than I paid for the whole aircraft). It was justified to me due to the free use of the radar (Uh, I don't have a transponder and I'm made of wood), a mile of smooth tarmac (I prefer grass and my landing roll is under 150 yards anyway) and the availability of an NDB and ILS (again, I can't use them) which makes £500 per year for all landings and dry parking space at the farm seem soooo much more attractive.
Anyway, negotiations underway for 520 yds by 25 of concrete.
(Shhhhhh. It's a secret!)
