A majority of the Fairoaks Aerodrome Traffic Zone (ATZ) is situated within the London Control Zone (CTR), therefore special procedures are in place to enable flights to depart and arrive at Fairoaks without the need to contact Heathrow Radar.
NOTE: All circuit joins must be made from the south, usually overhead the Ockham VRP. This might mean flying past the airfield first if arriving from the north.

Famous quotes containing the words flying and/or information:
“And now for something completely different.”
—Monty Python’s Flying Circus. Catch-phrase, in Monty Python’s Flying Circus (TV series)
“Phenomenal nature shadows him wherever he goes. Clouds in the staring sky transmit to one another, by means of slow signs, incredibly detailed information regarding him. His inmost thoughts are discussed at nightfall, in manual alphabet, by darkly gesticulating trees. Pebbles or stains or sunflecks form patterns representing in some awful way messages which he must intercept. Everything is a cipher and of everything he is the theme.”
—Vladimir Nabokov (1899–1977)
