Except as approved in writing by the Authority, all fees under this Order shall be paid by the commander of the aircraft on demand before the aircraft departs from the aerodrome.

If any fee under this Order is not paid to the Authority, it shall be a debt due to the Authority jointly and severally from the owner and the commander of the aircraft in respect of which the fee is payable.

For the purpose of enforcing payment of any fee under this Order the Authority may refuse to permit an aircraft to take off from an aerodrome until the fee has been paid.

No abatement of any fees shall be allowed in the event of any aerodrome service, assistance or other facility being not available.
