To be fair, in can't be that easy........the DLH (Augsberg) guys are always going-around!!!!

Tee hee.

Seriously, though, I think they are still capped on aircraft movements, so like other similarly capped units (Farnborough for example) they have to 'over-price' fees for smaller aircraft.

You also need to be a fairly slick operator, backtracking and departing between 7 or 8 mile gaps on final......and getting landing clearance at about 1.5 miles.

Most operators send aircraft over with crew trainers regularly. Does anyone who flies it quite a hard approach to fly, given it's size, G/P, cross winds, being surrounded by water etc?
