Drone Rules for Straight Lane
Airspace Advisory (Coldharbour Farm Microlight Site): Active private microlight airfield operating continuously from the surface upward during daylight hours. Enhanced operator vigilance required.
❖❖ ULTRALIGHT FIELD ADVISORY // COLDHARBOUR FARM SECTOR ❖❖
A localized lower-airspace safety caution is active for this coordinate block due to the presence of an active private microlight airfield operated by the Kent Microlight Aircraft Club (KMAC).
❖ AIRFIELD PROFILE -- Operating as a dedicated private microlight strip. The base runway ground elevation sits at 4ft AMSL (Above Mean Sea Level) within the Romney Marsh sector. ❖ VERTICAL RISK MATRIX -- Operational flight corridors are active continuously from the surface level upward, directly overlapping standard unmanned aircraft cruising heights. ❖ TRAFFIC ENCOUNTERS -- Heightened probability of encountering low-altitude, slow-moving flex-wing or three-axis microlights executing airfield traffic circuits, approach setups, or low-level cross-country transits. ❖ COORDINATION CONTACTS -- This is a strictly Prior Permission Required (PPR) environment for crewed assets. Drone operators looking to coordinate local flight patterns or verify active club operational status can reach facility managers at 07773-056397, 07973-479309, or 07807-169226. ❖ PILOT DIRECTIVES -- Remote operators must preserve a continuous, flawless visual line of sight (VLOS). Actively monitor the surrounding horizon for auditory and visual signs of light aviation traffic, and yield absolute right-of-way immediately and unconditionally to all crewed flight assets.
