With regard to your X-cty form, normally our Airport Duty Officer will meet you at your aircraft, if only to make sure that you pay the landing fees . He normally will bring you over to us, or at least point you in the right direction, and warn us over the ground r/t so that someone can let you in.

It's normally our Tower controller that signs your form.If there were any major problems we'd normally just have a quiet word with you, but I get the feeling that this will not be necessary.

Just asking for a QDM will not result in a fail. In fact I think that you'd have to cause a major incident e.g. a airprox or something, or give us the impression that it would be dangerous for us to let you continue. I can only remember that happening once in more years than I care to remember .

Don't be afraid to ask anything when you visit, even just for a look into the radar room. We're normally pleased to show you around, or try to answer any questions you may have .

P.S. Thanks for all the kind comments about our unit.
