Just saw this on stuff: Plane Spotter Cafe.

Looks really cool, I wonder if they will have the tower frequency playing on speakers on the little deck. Will be interesting to see this next to the military terminal.

I was a bit worried about the future of that building...I did all my PPL theory exams in there. It defenitively had the atmosphere (and smell) of a museum.
I'm very happy that they found a good use for it.

Just a shame the aeroclub has been totally screwed over by the airport company in the process.
