I have operated a Hawker out of Leeds East at least half a dozen times over the last couple of times and it's not without its challenges.

The airport itself and all the staff are very friendly however there is a a distinct lack of procedure getting in and out. Every time I have been in the procedure of entering or leaving controlled airspace has been different. It is also very close to Sherburn in Elmet which presents the added challenge of lots of VFR traffic.

We are considering not operating in and out of there at the moment until a proper procedure is in place. We have made a comprehensive assessment and brief for Leeds East as a company, happy to share any info with others.
