Better off going into Barton if your plane fits! Its nearer the centre of Manchester and cheaper.

Well in that case i think its Service Air then, or maybe if you want to be south of manchester maybe Woodford? Not sure if they are accepting GA though:confused: The last time i checked, it would be in the region of £150 to land and stay for a day at MCR, but you do get a "FREE" minibus ride to the EXECUTIVE terminal. One other thought is Ashcroft, brians landing? Off to the S/W By 15 miles, but a taxi for that would be MUCH cheaper than MCR:ok: All boils down to money i suppose:{ :{

Give the club a call. I can't remember their name or number, but someone at MAN would certainly know. They were certainly doing it last year - £35 landing fee and no problems at all.

Which club is that Whirly? I flew into barton last time on business and it would have been MUCH more impresive to take the pax into MCR but i was quoted stupid money by Service Air, any info for future use would be greatly appreciated.
