You are either being mischievous or insinuating Hawker of lacking airmanship - which is it?
Just for you then:
Jets are often operated in the private category and take the owner where they want to go, be it to an IFR commercial airfield or a private VFR 'airfield' COCAS.
Be careful not to lose the flexibility of GA or the spirit of aviation.
Sherburn is well marked on the map and a quick call can clarify traffic.
No doubt once an ATZ is mandated further procedures will no doubt follow.
I have witnessed the airfield getting its shinyJavelin fire truck out for Hawker's arrivals - although that doesn't stop some ab-initio from Sherburn getting lost and flying overhead - but that could also happen at 'somewhere nearby'.....
Joining procedures are clearly defined on the website - and these are also known by Sherburn traffic.
The future for LEA looks positive - have seen the plans for the new terminal and very impressed. Local GA and business aviation deserve such a convenient alternative.
