Peterborough Flying School

The airfield is situated to the west of Peterborough and southeast of Stamford. The airfield is PPR as it is essential that visitors are briefed to the airfield characteristics and activity. Intense parachuting takes place and for this reason overhead and deadside joins are prohibited. Peterborough Sibson offers an Air / Ground service on 120.325 Mhz and all visitors are required to be equipped with radio.

Notes: Inbound aircraft must call Cottesmore MATZ/LARS when no less than 15nm from Wittering. If no RT contact is established during Wittering operational hours aircraft must avoid the Wittering MATZ except for that part that lies to the south of Sibson and descend to Sibson circuit height before entering.

All transiting aircraft must not penetrate the ATZ whilst parachuting is in progress. Helicopters may not operate in the ATZ whilst parachuting is active.

Warnings: Freefall parachuting from FL130. Visiting pilots must contact A/G on 120.325 to ascertain the current situation. Power lines on approach to runway 24 – please make sure you do not descent to below 400 ft AGL before crossing them for landing on RWY 24.
