  1. Licensed for night operations by helicopters only.

2  Ground Movement

Not applicable

3  CAT II/III Operations

Not applicable

4  Warnings
  1. Noticeable windshear on Runway 27 approach.

  2. Strict PPR in force, visiting aircraft may be delayed due to helicopter test flying.

  3. The aerodrome surface is convex with a pronounced down gradient to the South at Runway 09 threshold.

  4. Beware of bird concentrations.

  5. Caution light aircraft, model aircraft and helicopter flying outside operational hours.

  6. Caution is required after heavy rain.

  7. Houses adjacent to the north and east boundaries of the aerodrome.

  8. Trees on high ground up to 400 FT AMSL, 1 NM to the east.

  9. Hangars in the southeast corner of the aerodrome.

  10. High ground rising to 442 FT AMSL 2.5 NM to the southwest with Radio mast (LGTD) 528 FT AMSL.

  11. Runway 09/27 has degraded and undulating surface. Aerodrome closed to fixed-wing aircraft.

  12. Transitional slope infringed by 4.88 M due to Radome at 505626.69N 0023931.68W.

  13. Transitional slope infringed by 2.13 M due to Aerodrome Boundary fence at 505629.74N 0024007.44W.

  14. Wildlife control measures and grass cutting may take place outside published aerodrome operating hours.

5  Helicopter Operations
  1. Procedures as for fixed-wing aircraft.

6  Use of Runways
  1. Runway surface degraded. Runway use by fixed-wing aircraft is prohibited.

7  Training

Not applicable

EGHG AD 2.21  NOISE ABATEMENT PROCEDURES

  1. All pilots should take particular note of noise sensitive areas at the eastern boundary of the aerodrome on final approach to Runway 27 which prohibits close base leg approaches to Runway 27 and low departures from Runway 09. An additional noise sensitive area exists at Brympton D'Evercy House (505612.88N 0024105.48W). Normal visual approaches to either runway should be made to an approximate mid-field position (e.g. abeam the radome) unless over-riding safety considerations exist or otherwise instructed by ATC. Pilots should plan to backtrack as required when departing from Runway 09 to avoid low departures over Yeovil town centre.

EGHG AD 2.22  FLIGHT PROCEDURES

1  Circuits
  1. Circuits to the south of the runway due to the proximity to Yeovilton. Circuit height 1000 FT AAL.

2  Instrument Approach Procedures
  1. Instrument Approach Procedures (IAP) for this aerodrome are established outside controlled airspace. See ENR 1.5.
