Night landings North Weald

[Superpilot]

Quick one. Are they possible?

Interested in doing night circuits, based Elstree, hate it :O

[AerBabe]

Bwahahahahahahahah!!!!!


Not a chance mate.

For a start, we don't have any lighting.

And there's the fact that we all have homes to go to, so come 7 pm we're out like a shot.

Oh, and then there's the cyclists who use the airfield after hours.


Next question?

;)


(Sorry).

Not tried it myself, but Kemble's supposed to be quite friendly in that direction. Or, from where you are, what about Southend?

[AerBabe]

How about Stapleford?

[Superpilot]

OK screw that :}. How do NW feel about having aircraft from elsewhere come in for some circuits? Any limitations, and will I really be charged per touch and go? :uhoh:

The Squadron, who look after most of the aviation activities at NW, currently limits pilots to three circuits. You need to land, sign in, and ask first. I don't know how they charge for it.

I believe that if you were to do three, have some lunch and go back out again, you would probably be able to do another three before departing.

Thanks, must try that

Andrewsfield are just up the road and have runway lighting.

They do night rating training on certain nights, so you might want to call and find out which nights they feed the electricity meter.

If you are worth less than Bernie Ecclestone then circuits at Southend are not for you.

regarding north weald i believe you have to be a member of the squadron before being allowed circuits.

I would suggest that, if you want to do circuits at North Weald, you call The Squadron and ask. Phone: 01992 524 510.
