Our sites

Flying sites are our biggest asset, the KHPA put a lot of time and effort into negotiating and maintaining access to them. Good relationships with the land owners and tenants is paramount in this. Please check out site guides regularly before flying as things do change through out the year at some sites.

Where possible KHPA sites are open to all BHPA flying members but a few sites are members only, some with accompanied guests, we would ask all pilots to respect this to ensure their future use.

Please contact the Sites Officer or individual site wardens if you have any questions .

Thank you. KHPA
