A review is underway of the Fly Neighbourly Advice for Kempsey Airport to ensure flying practices remain safe, responsible and respectful of nearby communities.

The Fly Neighbourly Advice outlines important guidelines for aircraft operators, including circuit training hours, engine ground running, simulated engine failures, altitude recommendations and noise-sensitive areas around the airport.

This review will ensure the guidelines continue to reflect community expectations while supporting the ongoing operation of aviation services.
