Rote 8
One point to bear in mind, is the charges that some handling agents make. At some airports these can be as high as £50 for a S/E light aircraft!
If you just want to get practice at regional airports, where fellas in yellow jackets wave table tennis bats at you, there are several that do not insist on handling agents. For instance, when I went to Norwich last month, the landing fee for an AG5B was about £13.50.
As you taxi in, the marshaller drives out to you in a minibus, jumps out & waves the bats about. When you have parked, he drives you to the terminal & drives you out again, on the return trip. All at no extra charge.
At the other end of the country, I think that Exeter still does not require handling agents & the landing fee is about £15 for a light single.
If you are now going further airfield, it might be worth buying a flight guide such as
Pooleys or your flying club may have one. These guides give all the info for all airfields, including cost of L/Fees & whether handling agents must be used, & if so, they give the name & tel number of the agents.
Have fun exploring new places
