I don't subscribe to Flyer, here is post #1in this thread
A stude landed at Kemble just after 5 the other day and was presented with a £150 landing fee and told that he had landed 2 minutes out of hours (he wasn't told in the air) and everyone had to be paid half an hours overtime.
That stinks. He won't be going there again. Their loss.
If it was a PPL, then it puts a different slant on things.

The point may be moot now, but if an airfield accepts a student flight, then it should expect that one or two things may not be as polished as an experienced pilot.
Yes, the instructor who let the flight plan things so tight would obviously have to take a share of the load.
