Looking at a stop for fuel and maybe a bite to eat if available, on the way from Laddingford to St Mary's. Which of these two airports would you recommend? I'm leaning towards Goodwood...

Overall, my plan is a night at St Mary's, 2 at Newquay, and 2 in Caernarfon!

Goodwood - take a look at the nice shiny flying club building.

Goodwood !

Goodwood has a nice atmosphere and a nice new cafe (4 weeks since total rebuild). Fuel is from a 1930’s style shell petrol pump near the tower.

Lee is all tarmac - and the fuel pumps are on the far side of the airfield, miles from the terminal and facilities.

To be fair, at Solent, the fueller will come to your aircraft as soon as you have parked if you request it on the radio on the way in. Good price there too.

Goodwood, Goodwood, Goodwood.


Did I mention Goodwood

Goodwood.

For clarification, you do mean Lee On Solent rather than Southampton ?

Goodwood.

I have to confirm what LysanderV8 put.
Park on the parking area next to the cafe & the bowser came to us.
Super easy.

Let's not forget that Lee On Solent was nearly lost, so any support........

Lee on Solent is nice, but Goodwood surely must be one of the nicest airfields in the country

Goodwood, I was there this morning in the new cafe

Goodwood it is then, this time around. Lee-on-Solent maybe for a future stop!

Visited Lee on Solent last weekend for the 1st time.
Very friendly, nice little cafe and a viewing garden.
A short 2 min walk to the beach and a couple of restaurants on the beachfront too.
Goodwood is great but I doo like to be beside the sea.

No quite correct, fuel is a fuel truck that will drive anywhere on the field.
