> US "licences" are not charge for mechanical rights for exactly the promotional and prospecting reason Nick outlines. I've always found that a great many UK 'authorities' are out to charge for everything without considering the 'potential benefit or income' of a particular arrangement that may (in turn) generate a commission/revenue for the authority up the chain. A very blinkered approach if you ask me.
