Intersection departures
Griggo,
The problem is, usually, that small operators do not have the financial capacity to challenge the airfield owners.
With an adequate legal challenge,I believe that one would not stand up.
Most night circuits are done for some regulatory purpose, not just for fun, a discriminatory charge by a public use airport, levied against somebody fulfilling a regulatory requirement, makes for an interesting argument.
If you are talking about a capital city secondary airport, at least nominally, the terms of the lease are on the night circuit flyers side.

I wonder if it would be different if they charged (x+20) dollars for all circuits, but offered a goodwill processing discount of $20 for all circuits done in daylight hours?
