The field is available during normal park hours: from 8A.M. to sunset.

Flight activity is limited to the operation of sailplanes, electric powered aircraft and gas towplanes on a limited basis to launch sailplanes only.  No other powered flying is allowed.

Flight activity has priority over other recreational activities.

Mowing takes priority over any flight activity. NO FLYING WHILE THE GRASS IS BEING CUT !!!

When electric flight is active, electric airplanes should leave a safe separation from the launch lines. There needs to be communication between sailplane and electric pilots.

Do not fly electric sailplanes over the launch lines at any time.

Unpowered planes have the right of way over powered aircraft.

Winch or high start launchings have the right of way over all craft in flight.

All sailplanes, electric or unpowered, should be operated to ensure that they are within gliding distance of the field boundaries, and well clear of the residence and outbuildings south of Smith Mill (Fairhill School) Road.

No flight activity is sanctioned to the East of Paper Mill Road

Operate all other electric planes within the physical boundaries of the field.

Powered craft will operate on the same runway and use the same flight line and pattern direction.

Pathways are provided for pedestrian access to the big pond area. For your own safety, stay well clear of the launch lines when there is flying activity.

No Li-Po charging is allowed in the field house.
