Comments
I'm based here and having a landing contract, so I entered details of what landing would have cost a visitor on my type based on current published prices. Again based on published prices overnight parking would have been £18.75, and 100LL is listed at £1.60. No handling. Limited opening at the moment due to COVID-19 - see their website. Note that the ATZ extends vertically into controlled airspace, so normally you cannot fly overhead without infringing so make sure you establish two way contact with Barton Information before entering. The overhead join is now at 1500 feet (see AIP). If you use the Manchester Low Level Route, note that there are now mandatory SVFR procedures if there is cloud less than 1000 feet above you. There are other limitations too - see the AIP entry for EGCC.
