COMMENTS

Very restricted site. Note this is a notified Danger Area due to rifle range! No flying when operational. List of operational dates available from the web site or the Airborne office – plan ahead.

Park cars sensibly, before cattle grid after Crowthorne school for Take off 1 or in  quarry or off road before cattle grids for take off 2, do not go anywhere near Harcles Farm. Obstructions include- fences below take off, a few trees. Area noted for protection of Lapwings, therefore no unnecessary ground handling or outlandings to the north of take off points. Bottom landing only in emergency.

Take off only at points marked. First site visit must be with other site experienced club member.
