Payments must be paid to the accounts team within one week of flight. An invoice will be sent to the flying school / aircraft owner. If you are a visitor and not based here, please ring the airport office the following morning to arrange for an invoice to be sent to you.

PPR

​You must notify ATS by 14:30 Local on the Thursday to book in. This must be done via telephone at 01384 221378.

​​A decision will be made by airport management at 15:00L, which shall be promulgated to interested parties and rostered night staff.

Tower 

To maintain operational focus and to prevent unnecessary distractions to the Duty FISO, visits to the tower during night flying evenings are not permitted.

This measure ensures the Duty FISO, who will be working alone, can concentrate fully without distractions. If you need to contact the Duty FISO, please do so by ringing air traffic on 01384 221378 only.
