The holding launches" call is now defunct. A "aerotow/winch lauch in progress" call is made instead when a launch is about to commence.

Obviously a launch only commences when the Duty Instructor at the launch points determines that it is safe to to do.

So just carry on as usual making normal circuit calls.

Just be prepared to give way (go-around, not orbit on final) if a glider takes up final ahead of you from the other circuit. He/she will be lower and tighter than you.

If in any doubt ask for traffic and Lee Radio will answer, or Glider base is Lee Radio gone home.

New FlyBN Lee Radio hours from 4th July 0900-1700 weekdays, 0900-1800 weekends.

Work started on 1st phase of the Flybn Clubhouse being created at the control tower building - pilot lounge, flight briefing room, simple kitchen - planned to be ready in 3 or 4 weeks time.
