North Hill Airfield

Comments:
The club normally operates Weds, Thur & Weekends
The shaded areas to the north & south of the airfield have variable slopes and cambers and landings are inadvisable.
Beware of glider launching cables on airfield.
Avoid Dunkeswell Aerodrome to the ENE as Free-fall parachuting up to FL150 normally takes place during daylight hours.
