It is also possible that Bembridge will not survive unless they provide some half decent facilities, to support the traditional burger run business which is the bulk of their traffic now. They need a decent cafe/restaurant. But that's easy to arrange. The island is a very attractive place to fly to.
Actually the cafe is very good now - well as good as pretty much any GA airport in the UK. The veranda is also well done; it is very pleasant indeed sitting out in the sun with a cream tea. (perhaps a little less pleasant at thsi precise moment )

I shall be incredibly disappointed to see Bembridge close were that to happen (although I think and hope it is unlikely). It is one of those places that justify going back and for me is as close as the UK version of L2K.
