Ferg, let me get this straight. Everytime you depart from an airport,

Garry:
Look below.
" In the course of recent correspondence, the following evolved
---From my relating the landing fees here which tend to kill small aircraft
travel
and glorify the snatching of filthy lucre from unwary honest folk:
"On infinite ratios of take-offs to landings:
I explored your line of thought at Edinburgh here (where they are
getting too big for their GA). Unfortunately they have a solution - on
arrival at the gate with your trailer they ask "and who is your handling
agent ?" . These cost around 65 per visit, as I found to my cost when
diverting to Glasgow recently, an airport with similar pretensions (-((
. nil desperandum ill... etc"
You may recognize the complainant but not from me.....
What you read as my text is a quote. I am in Canada. The quote is about
Edinburgh. It is in Scotland.
All that revolution stuff is not your fault! It happened before
we were born. I dare you to land in Idlewild without either paying an
equal amount or having your bird disappear. They are similar airports.
I was talking about middle America, not Long Island.
Anyway, enjoy your Revolution - but try tea - it's uplifting...
Happy landings
