Angel No landing fee

If you still have 'the yellow peril' next year ..007 .. I'm looking forward to lunch already!!
Where's the closest refuel?
It will take us most of the afternoon to get back.

I think a neat way to get back at these places is find one that has property adjacent to it, get permission to land there and walk over to the Hotel..........
They say something just say you used the free parking..........

No problem a tank full at Rochester will get us there and back - Take some sandwiches and water to sustain us en route...

What a shock!!!!! If you pitch up in a car there is no fee, pitch up in a 22 and hey full MALLETING............
Mottram Hall £95.00 landing fee
Moorcock at Disley £75.00

Full marks to Shrigley Hall near Bollington, no landing fee, Great lunch.

Anybody else got a list of stay away hotels?
Was that the white R22 that followed a course along Gawsworth Road (B5392) and returned later last Sunday the 10th ? Or was it you this Sunday just returning that way ? Only we dont see much rotary traffic over here. The odd 206 taking photo's and a black r22 now and again.

Tony Sullivan lives and flies from home 2 miles from Mottram Hall the black R22
Steve Bell Jet Ranger 2 Miles from Mottram hall
Jack Froggatt 5 miles east R44

Jeez, if it costs that much just to land, what does the valet charge to park the ship?? I hope no additional charges for added scratches and dings.
