PPR – Prior Permission Required Form

PPR is mandatory for all aircraft and visitors. This is to ensure pilots and visiting aircraft are fully briefed on the ongoing airfield infrastructure development, airspace use by powered and non-powered, military and flight training operators using it.

PPR can be arranged via Air Traffic Control on 01253 472527. Alternatively complete all fields in the PPR form below and click the ‘Send’ button to send the form through to ATC and Ops. We will acknowledge receipt and confirm your booking as soon as possible. Should any details change, or you wish to cancel your flight, please phone ATC on 01253 472527 quoting your aircraft registration number.

Aircraft with a MTOW of over 3000kg will be subject to mandatory handling. If this is applicable, do not fill the out the PPR form below and contact hangar 3 directly using the following contacts:

Hangar 3 direct email: BLKhandling@hangar3blackpool.com

Please note the airport operational hours are 0700 – 2100 local/0600 – 2000 zulu (unless promulgated otherwise by NOTAM). Pilots will be required to complete and submit an Out of Hours request form should they wish to depart/arrive outside of these hours.

Bookings for instrument training slots must be taken over the phone by ATC. Please see the General Aviation Page for further information.

I have read and fully understand the Blackpool Airport Pilot Briefing information on the Visiting by Air page.

Please note this form does NOT constitute approval for instrument training. All bookings for instrument training slots must be taken over the phone by ATC.
