DANGER TO AIRCRAFT: There have been a number of instances of helicopters (especially close to Merryfield) being illuminated at night with powerful torches. It must be stressed that this is extremely dangerous, especially to aircrews using Night vision Equipment and has serious flight safety implications. It is also a civil offence, and the police are always informed of incidents.

Anyone concerned about aircraft operations or with any questions is always welcome to call the Community Relations Officer (01935 455226) or Officer in Charge Merryfield (01460 52018).
