Descriptions of some of the sites may not be complete yet. Temporary closure of flying sites Circumstances may arise under which other air users need access to sites where we fly. This could be planned training, construction work or emergencies. Flying at other sites To accommodate special events, charity fund raising or competitions - flying at other sites can be arranged subject to approval by the Safety Officer of the HKPA . The approval is subject to a strict procedure including agreement of a flight plan, take-off and landing sites with other air users and landowners.
Mobile phones are extremely useful in an emergency, but illegal to use in the air.
Before you fly Make sure someone knows your intended flight plans and your expected return time. It is always advisable to fly with someone. Leave the HKPA contact telephone list in a place someone can find it. Remember your pre-flight checks. An emergency life preserver and hook knife are recommended when flying coastal sites.
