piperboy84: obviously you are unaware that UK reg microlights whether 3-axis or flexwing have to have a notarised noise certificate.
Flexwings are banned at Fairoaks too, (although you're unlikely to be turned away if you declare an emergency) presumably because their low landing speed might cause problems to aircraft following them as being a FISO airfield, only one landing aircraft is allowed at a time, and the only place to vacate is the runway end taxiway.
NB: The FISO cannot prevent you landing if the runway is occupied, but the CAA require an MOR to be filed if you do!
