ROBIN HOOD DONCASTER SHEFFIELD AIRPORT

[DamienB]

Last time I saw an in-service Bucc flying was at Finningley... ahhhh... do you think they'd get upset if you called them 'Finningley Approach'?

The landing fees no doubt will be daylight robbery.... (but will they go to charity?)

[Mike Cross]

An engaged couple wanted the song from the film "Robin Hood" (Everything I do, I do it for you) to be played at their wedding and asked the organist for the theme from Robin Hood.

.....



You've guessed it -




Come the day they got "Robin Hood, Robin Hood, Riding through the glen.....

Wonder if they'll have an airport Sheriff?

Have a look at

http://ukga.com/forum/viewthread.cfm?forumThreadId=1661#firstnew

Free landing fees for the first bit to give them some practise. Also spotted the "strange" frequency over there.

[Paul_Sengupta]

128.775 = 128.77 (we just leave out the 5), but on ukga it says 128.755.

Guess they spotted the mistake and changed it.

"Robin Hood, saw a nude, riding through the glen,
Friar Tuck, ran like f***, to get the Merrie Men,
When they got there, Robin was bare......."

Ah, the songs of misspent childhood

£61 according to Joe FBS in the other post in May 2011. And that's for the unpublicised "leisure" rate apparently.

Don't know if it's changed since.

[James Chan]

The landing fee is £21 for a PA28. The handling agent charges £50 on top of this. Then add VAT.

[Dave Phillips]

Obviously a Class D CTR isn't enough.
