1. Attend airspace briefing!

A DHPC airspace briefing is mandatory before you fly in LGC & DHPC's sensitive letter of agreement (LOA) airspace. No airspace briefing sticker, no flying, no exceptions.

Additionally, before flying in DGA1, it must first have been opened by LGC (on Telegram) and you must be signed-in!

2. Open an asselect or xcontest base file

• If using asselect, choose Exclude Home Airfield: DUNSTABLE and under Extra > Local Agreements, leave both DUNSTABLE boxes unticked.
• Choose OpenAir format.

You may leave this blank to generate a file containing only DHPC LOA airspace & the affected segments of Luton CTR & CTA.

3. Select options

This page is in beta. Please assume that the airspace file generated is wrong, corrupt, out of date, not what you were expecting, or contains mistakes. Check and double-check the resultant file using a text editor (search for "DHPC" to find modifications made) and your instrument, comparing with a known good reference and report all errors to @willrice on Telegram including details of the browser used and steps to recreate the issue.

It is the pilot's responsibility alone to ensure that their instrument configuration and knowledge will enable them to avoid controlled airspace at all times!

All responsibility and liability for any outcome relating to use of this website lies with the pilot alone.
