Special Procedures and Comments: CTAF 118.1 The strip can be hard to see if you are not familiar with the area. There are cones marking the runway and two windsocks to look for. There is a silo about a mile north of the strip, and to the south the Rocks Ferry bridge and the adjacent large white house are good landmarks. The northernmost 1/3 of the strip has a significant upslope, so preferred runway for landing is 35 and for takeoff is 17. After rain the sides of the runway at the southern end can be soft. Keep to the centre and if landing on 17 go all the way to the hard turning circle at the end before doing a 180. Noise abatement: We have a few noise-sensitive neighbours. Circuit height is 1000′; downwind leg for 35 should be on the western side of the railway line. No touch-and-goes or low-level circuits permitted. Please avoid overflying the area west of the airstrip and east of the railway line if possible, and never below 1000’. Prior Permission Required. |
