What are we talking.....experts please pile in here....75% mark-up. This from a "government" agency.

Again, staggering.
Having just flown Flybe, booking my flight via internet, perhaps AME's should take a leaf out of the so called "budget airlines."

Cost of Medical £7.50
Charges and tax £180.00
Use of changing rooms £50.00
Urinalysis ContainerCharge £3.00
(If over 100mls you have to buy it from us) £30.00
Glucose Tolerance Test (Glucose available from our £25.00
in flight shop)
Please bring change of clothes (If your bag is over
50cmx38cmx25cm) £25.00
=================================
Total a feckin lot of money your best of going to Cornwall
=================================

Cash not taken, if you wish to pay by other methods there will be a 23% surcharge.

By the way, if you DNA we'll charge your visa card a bomb more.

I wont be surprised if these Ame's make more money than thier colleagues in the NHS. I knew one a nice chap by the way does about 5 renewals at a cost of £100 quid each at one location once a week the rest he doea at a different location. So he does 20 renewals a week thats 2 grand a week. I am sure thats more than most pilots make.
