Norwich

While we are on the subject of Norwich.... I planned a VFR flight there a couple of months back, and when I called up 10 mins out (as notified) I was told (very abruptly) that they were PPR and that I was not welcome. I assumed at the time that I had missed this in the Jeppesen manual and stayed away. Now I can see in Jeppesen and the AIP that there is no mention of PPR and wonder if they were within their rights to refuse me permission to land.

Fortunately I was not flying there for any particular reason and diverted to Old Buckenham, where I was very welcome and spent a very pleasant afternoon.
