This is in response to a post on the "PFA" thread from Dawn in Devon, who has had some bad experiences at N Ireland airfields.
QUOTE; "Hey Tony, Where can you fly to in N ireland, have had some bad experiences there last year.
EGAD: Very hostile and unhelpful, some bitch kepy on about Special Branch even though we had that all sorted by fax prior. I think it was the CFI who was a bit of a nasty bastard also, made us move our aircraft after it was parked under the instructions from the a/g radio. Not much of a welcome compaired to a few years ago.
EGAC: Cost about £60 landing, parking one night.
EGAA: Woodgate, God do you have to bribe the re-fuelers to leave their coffee. Very nice and helpful ATC though.
EGAE: Bastards all :- ATC, Security, Staff in shop, it'll be a cold day in hell before I'm back.
Dawn".
Any other complaints?
I will forward to the airfield operators / managers
