Flying In
Seething (EGSJ) Aerodrome is officially open to visitors Saturdays and Sundays from
0900 to around 1700hrs (sunset in winter).
PPR by radio is generally acceptable during normal operating hours for non-commercial, fixed wing GA arrivals. PPR by telephone is required for all commercial and helicopter movements and all other arrivals out of normal operating hours.
Seething has a single 800 metre asphalt runway 24/06. The circuit pattern is left hand 1000' aal for 24 and right hand 1000' aal for 06. Please fly your circuits avoiding the local villages.
Please call the airfield on 01508 550453 (this is a shared phone and fax line). If unsuccessful, try contacting Alan Youngs on 01508 550222.
As Seething is run solely by its members rather than by flying school or commercial operator, we do not charge a formal landing fee for non-commercial movements. We do however, encourage visitors to make a donation towards the upkeep and improvement of our runway and other facilities. We would suggest a donation of £5 per engine.

Fuel
100LL Avgas is readily available during normal airfield operating hours (Saturday and Sunday, 0930 until approximately 1700). It may be possible to arrange refuelling at other times but this must be by prior arrangement. We are pleased to accept payment by cash, cheque, Master Card, Visa, Switch or Delta cards.
Please advise when you make your initial call on 122.6 that fuel is required.
After landing (unless directed otherwise) continue to Taxi passed the parked aircraft until you reach the yellow "STOP" line painted across the taxiway. Shut down and someone (normally the Duty Pilot) will help you wheel your aircraft to the pump for refuelling.
N.B. Helicopters can only be accepted for refuelling at Seething if they can be wheeled to the pumps. NO WHEELS, NO FUEL - Sorry!
