CODE OF CONDUCT

We depend on the goodwill of aircra owners and airfield operators to pursue our hobby. Please ensure that your conduct does not bring disrepute

to Air-Britain or create difficulties for the wider enthusiast community. Take care to obtain the appropriate permissions to visit facilities and take

photographs, and to stay within the law. Remember, although photos taken at a particular location may have appeared in a publication, this does not

mean that you also have permission to take pictures there. The Air-Britain Code of Conduct is on the reverse of your membership card – it’s in everybody’s

interests that you abide by it.
