Notes

1. Aircraft circuits will be flown at 1000 feet Agl

2. Helicopter circuits will be flown at 700 feet Agl

3. When departing on runway 32 aircraft will turn 25 degrees to the right when safe to do so to avoid Rosecarnick farm

4. Circuit traffic departing 14 left will turn left after passing abeam Little Regarded Farm

5. No dead side joins for aeroplanes, i.e. descending circuits from the South/West will not be permitted.
Only the specified left base for 14 and right base for 32 joins are to be permitted by aeroplanes.

6. Aircraft are to avoid overflying Treliske Hospital to South East below 1500 feet Agl. Be aware that helicopters transiting to and from the hospital operate in the vicinity.

7. Aircraft are to avoid overflying Threemilestone. If necessary to overfly do not do so below 1500 feet Agl or below height for safe landing clear following engine failure.See below Note 8 for Rule 5.

8. Aircraft (other than helicopters) must avoid overflying Truro City Centre below a height sufficient for a safe landing clear of the area following an engine failure. In any case there should be no flight over Truro City centre below 1500 feet Agl within 600 metres of the highest fixed object ( Air Navigation Order 2000 as may be subsequently amended Rule 5 a)).
