The sections below detail the agreement between SAHPA and Airforce Base Langebaanweg (FALW) regarding the flexible use of FAR45 and FAD46 airspace.
Please link to the official agreement for the exact wording. The text on this page serves as a friendly overview only.
Please do not abuse FALW airspace or the concessions that they have kindly granted us.
FAR45 and FAD46 (45/46) is airspace under FALW control with the following boundaries as indicated on the map above:
Clearance to enter 45/46 must be arranged either via
Clearance should be requested preferably the day before but no later than 09h00 on the day by supplying the following information:
1. Planned flight date
2. Planned launch site
3. Planned route code or sectors if route not listed
4. Expected maximum altitude during the flight
Applications have to be submitted for any flights that are made from within or approach 10km of 45/46’s outer boundaries.
If we stick to the above the no reply from FALW means that we are cleared for take-off.
In addition:
Daily clearance procedures still apply to take off sites and flights east of Piketberg and Koringberg as they are too close to FALW ATZ for automatic clearance. Flights made outside of the concession zone outlined above also require pre-flight clearance requests.
FALW may at any time close the airspace to gliders at their own discretion.
