30-Dec-2017	Thanks John. Will do.				Vincent Gledhill
30-Dec-2017	Overhead join is 1000'agl as Phil says. The gliders have agreed to stay above 1500' over the landfill site, ( ie deadside for 05/23.) which is a good thermal source. To maintain safe vertical separation overhead join at 1000' agl. There is no tea or coffee machine. Vince, I would recommend you run any comments past me before publishing as I am currently the airfield Operator.				John Teesdale
20-Dec-2017	There is no cafe OHJ is 1000ft Published runways are 05/23, 14/32 BUT (No take off on 32 or 28. No landing on 10). Beware motorbike school on 10/28 Spelling mistake on SafetyCom				Phil Harwood
17-Aug-2016	Thanks Mike, Card Amended accordingly.				Vince Gledhill
16-Aug-2016	Overhead join height is 1000' above circuit height (500') so should be 1500' and not 2000'				Mike Poole
