Facilities provided by airport owners is another issue all together. In my view if the airport is free to use then they do not need to provide any although many do. My gripe is where they charge a landing fee (sometimes quite a hefty fee) and provide nothing for it. As a minimum I would expect fixed tiedowns in a cleared parking area,clean toilets,a crew room with at least a few chairs to sit out bad weather,a pay phone especially if out of mobile range.Phone numbers for local cabs,accomadation etc.I know there are publications showing all this but if you did not expect to have to drop in may not have taken it along.
