I was always under the impression that an aerodrome with a 'Public' aerodrome license (Shoreham etc) had to open to all & sundry, unless with good reason (and NOTAMd as such). A 'Private' licensed aerodrome (e.g Duxford) may have restrictions, contained in the AIP...one of which may be PPR....
I cant believe the arrogance of some posters here. If an airfield is closed, its closed for good reason. If the requirement is for PPR, then why not do it Hardly difficult is it? Some airfields, Duxford for example, often have high performance aircraft carrying out display practice overhead, and the last thing i would want is somebody blundering through my sequence without an appreciation of what's happening in the circuit. Sadly something that is all too frequent these days...
As for 'private airstrips', a flying windsock does not give permission to land or to do touch and goes
