If dropping into Hilversum be advised that they do not accept credit cards for fuel. Cash only which left us rather short of Euros! Also, refuelling not the easiest procedure involving a complicated sequence and the use of a "credit card" and pin number issued for the purpose.

In addition, not much help with regard to flight planning and local procedures. The person concerned gave the impression that he thought we ought to know it all!

However, a local aircraft owner did provide us with tie down ropes free of charge, which we duly returned with many thanks the following morning, so not all bad news!

We entered and exited Holland through Midden Zeeland, which we found first class and most helpful in every regard.

For what it is worth, Paul A.
