Doncaster Finningley

[topcat450]

Well they've appeared on the met-offices site, admittedly with 'NO METAR AVAILABLE' as the data but still, it is getting up and running around now (IIRC). I'm sure I saw on one of the BBs that a few folks have now flown in there helping the ATCOs.

So.. when will it appear in the AIP? I've had a look on the web and couldn't find it listed in the Aerodromes section of the AIP.

Am I missing something?

[Capt BK]

I think it will appear in the AIP shortly but can't remember the date. I have seen the provisional copies of each page sent to HUY so it probably wont be long before they are published.

It's 17 years since I last flew into Finningley, it'll be fun to do it again. Can't wait.

I understand that recently, Finningley have been offering free approaches & t&g's in order to help train the Tower ATCOs. Not sure if this is still the case.

Today it was a range of single GA aircraft from the local area.
