Headcorn Airfield is the base for one of the most active parachute centres in the South of England with jumping taking place up to 15,000 feet. It is therefore prohibited to join overhead the airfield. The parachute Drop Zone is located 300 metres northeast of runway 29 threshold therefore go-arounds on both runways should be conducted straight ahead or to the South of the runway.Visiting pilots please note that Headcorn is PPR in order that pilots can receive an aerodrome briefing. Non radio aircraft are accepted (again strictly PPR). Customs facilities are available from 0900 to sunset for aircraft going to, or returning from the continent.
