About This Spot

IMPORTANT: CAN ONLY BE FLOWN AT WEEKENDS
ABSOLUTELY NO MID WEEK FLYING PERMITTED

Launching A fairly straight forward launch as shown on the site map.
Top Landing The top landing area is small and occasionally turbulent with a lot of sink.
It should be approached from the south-east with plenty of height.
Bottom
landing
There is no official bottom landing on this site. No deliberate top to bottoms are
permitted.
Emergency bottom landing is available in the large field on the other side of the
road.
XC Potentially there is great scope from this site for XC, however some serious
work and perhaps planning would be required to avoid airspace. Salisbury
Plain danger area is probably the first obstacle you would meet at 35 Km. This
area is permanently closed to free flyers.

General Site
Info
This is one of our least used sites due perhaps to being on the fringe of
Wessex territory.
It is also directly beneath the approach path of the main runway at RNAS
Yeovilton, hence no mid week flying.

Takeoff altitude: 169m

Access Notes

Directions Drive into Corton Denham village and proceed northward. The Queen’s Arms and Post Office will be on your left. Carry on out of the village. Follow the road along the base of the hill and around to the right. Take a right turn up the single track road on the far side of the hill (lane to Witcombe Farm is too far). Drive to the top of the hill. Access Access to the site is via a stile and gate by the pine trees on the same side of the road as the lay-by. After entering field follow the barbed wire fence around to the left. Parking Park in the lay-by on the right hand side.
