Thanks for your point about alt not being notified via Flt plan if IFR. Do you know where I might find a formal reference to that? Is it Europewide or just UK.
A situation that arose was in Italy and initially the FBO refused and hence as you describe ATC refused. FBO person refused because they were ' a little busy' that day and on their own, not because there was any parking or other issue.
