Somebody offered me an EASA 1 for that prop, 200 quid, cash.
Looks Nice Peter. :-) hope you had a good lunch.
Guernsey was a really good experience, starting with the super nice and helpful airport
There is some number of Rockwell Commanders there. I wonder who looks after them?
Total cost was about £35 (1400kg).
Top food – rather French in quality
Their number plate format is fun but you can’t do C4VOK etc
The very posh banking square
Some beaches to explore next time
Alderney from FL100 (crappy phone pic)
On the way there I got a Eurocontrol CTOT (slot)
The slot is due to the following regulation:
- EGWIL09
The following cause was given:
- enroute phase: ATC capacity
The slot time is designed to have you over the congestion at the given time and altitude:
Airport: EGKA, time: 0751Z
but by the time we got into the car it was reduced and later cancelled. I am impressed that a TB20 at 140kt and FL100 stretches ATC capacity to its limit
I’ve seen a few 2-reg Rockwells around the place…
Looks like Guernsey has mandatory handling – how expensive was it?

As Peter says around £35
For a PA46 @ 1.95T it is £25.16 handling and £10.00 landing and thats before discount if you are an AOPA member.
If every airport worked like Guernsey and ASG aviation would be a real pleasure.
For handling just call ASG it could not be more simple.
JET A1 50p AVGAS about £1.00 Litre, before AOPA discount. (no VAT either !)
