Visiting pilots are very welcome.
The latest online UK eAIP entry for Netherthorpe must be read, understood and acted on prior to visiting.
Due to the limiting size of the airfield Netherthorpe is strictly PPR by telephone. Visitors will be given a PPR number which must be quoted upon first radio contact. Without a PPR number, we cannot allow you to land as we have no proof that you have received a verbal briefing regarding the weather and runway conditions. Unless you are a regular visitor and are familiar with Netherthorpe you must get a safety brief with an instructor before departure.
Circuit direction: RW 06 and 36 RH. RW 24 and 18 LH. Overhead join at 1800 ft. QFE. Circuit height 800 ft. QFE. Avoid over flying surrounding villages.
