Advise on who to talk to
 
Hi all

I am planning a flight from Cambridge to Peplow ( Just east of Shawbury Matz )
routing Sywell, Rugby, Catton, Peplow.

As I have not flown around that part of the country what would your recommendations be on who to talk to probably only basic service

Birmingham intl ?

There is a big gliding Comp on @ Husbands Bosworth

Cheers
Jxc

Where is Catton?

Many Thanks DC10

I always forget about London Info when not around London :ugh:

Cheers

London Information are very helpful particularly with reference to weather actuals and forecasts, they also have direct phone lines to most airfields in the London FIR and can pre-note your details in advance.

Catton just south east a little of LIC

If no LARS services available talk to London Info....they are there to help and you will find they dont bite!! same with Scottish info but then again I am biased as that is my day job.....have a great trip....:ok::ok::ok:

You could
 
Speak to EGNX for basic service you could.
Coventry good.
Cottesmore if it's during the week.

Ignore Birmingham as they have a habit of not wanting to deal with GA.

If you have no one else: London Info.

By way there is a list in the AIP that depicts the LARS.

I highley suggest copying that list as it can give you a clearer view.

If it is a week day use the LARS from Shawbury, otherwise you could consider dialing up 121.5 and staying out of CAS.
