VISITING US
We're open seven days from 0800 - 2000 to arrivals (VFR only). PPR is required for all sorts of reasons and is only available online here.
Please adopt the Noise Abatement below and read the information, updated all the time, about our facilities. You'll be able to see if the cafe is open, for example.
Please also note that the Control sign will always be on the right building. We're open 7 days from 0800 - 2000, with Buckenham Radio and RFFS manned in line with the AIP. It's possible that on a weekday that you may see no one. Please don't think that means that the landing is free, or indeed the coffee- the cameras never sleep and we will invoice, with an administraion fee, the 30% of aircraft which leave without paying (or booking out) whilst simultaneously reporting the failure to comply with the law which will have been commited.
We no longer accept cash - Here's how to pay the Landing and other fees.
From 28th August 2023, there are two ways to pay your landing fees:
1. Online, by card, Apple Pay or Google Pay. When you PPR the confirmation email will have a link allowing you to do this. QR codes around the site go to the same place and you can also click here to pay.
2. By card, using iPads at the airfield. You'll find these where you see the Control Sign and you'll need your physical card with you to type in all the numbers. Option 1 is much easier.
We don't accept cash, cheques, IOU's or otherwise. All landing fees are payable by midnight on the day of departure.
