It’s just gimmickry. Andy is right. Haven’t you ever been outside one nightclub/store/pub etc., and been offered tickets or a discount at the one down the road? It’s called competition, and unless you’re a BA shareholder I don’t see why you’re worried. I see very little problem in this. BHX is 30 minutes nearer to me than NEMA, but if I want to got to a destination and the fare is cheaper from NEMA than BHX that’s where I’ll fly from. Think the parkings cheaper at NEMA as well.

correct about the parking. I have pre booked at an offsite carpark for August at EMA for 3 weeks £59 !!!!
Two weeks at brum just cost me over £100 😮
Somebody, somewhere with a vendetta againt the airport, Wasn’t the original argument about landing fees???
Get the Lens out!!!!
I’m on a VS 744 on the 6th of Feb out of MAN, so If any of you snappers could make a note, a photo would be much appreiciated. 🙂
Don’t go skiing….. !!! 🙂

Hey, Wannabe….I emailed Michael and he caught my flight landing, wonder if you caught it. It was on the 15th G-FCLB from BHX????
Happy new year
Hmm don’t think I can picture it. You shoulda come and said hi!
I didn’t know it was you!!!!!! :rolleyes:
Wow, a lot of responses. Thanks very much everyone!
Cheesebag, did you see us around the area at all while you were there? We were two guys (17 and 24), both with DSLR’s and hefty lenses.
A330-300 – As Tom pointed out, I’m using the 350D. Attatched to it is a Sigma 50-500 f4-6.3 lense.
dc10fan – They were taken through the wire fence with my smaller lense attatched. But you’re right, they were very hard to capture!
Elgan – AB were fine. But even if they weren’t, they still made me happy by the fact that they gave us a Fokker 100 when I only expected a 734!
I spotted you… I had my 2 boys with me and a Beige Citreon Berlingo!!!!
ACE is great on Brit and German Days…Thurs/Sun etc. There is a dirttrack leading from a road in Matagorda which you can take the car and park all day, Right by 03 😀
I’ve been over 10 times. 😮
Superb shots – even boring old BA looks good in them. I also liked Cheesebags last picture – sunrise/set?
Sunset, Over the south coast approx 16:00, landed at BHX at 16:45
Hope you don’t mind me butting in!!!!!
Be gentle, just a kodak easyshare camera!!!!!
