7. The hall is booked from 2:30 to 4:30, it will be opened by the school just before, once it is open flying can only start on the advice of the Wealden Committee member who is running the session, he’ll  be the guy taking the money! Please Note: No committee member = no flying.

8. Helicopters are to fly / hover  immediately  in front of the pilot. With pilots around the hall it is simply not safe for helicopters to fly across or away towards the back of the hall.
