The Three Acres welcomes arrivals by helicopter. However, prior permission is recommended as the available landing site is often used for wedding marquees.
Standing within the shadow of the Emely Moor TV transmitter, the landing site is a gently sloping short grass lawn adjacent to the car park with useable size of 200 x 350 ft, surrounded by low walls and hedgerow, the centre of which is located at:
53˚ 36’ 33” N
1˚ 40’ 30” W
Care should be taken on approach as the ground has significant relief in parts, particularly towards the transmitter. The eastern boundary of the lawn abuts a relatively busy public road. However, depending upon wind direction, a number of surrounding fields are suitable for approach before air taxi to the landing site.
Situated just south of the Leeds Bradford airport class d zone boundary, a flight information service is generally available, and recommended, from Leeds approach on 123.75
