Aerodromes listed in the following pages are licensed byAeronautical Services Department,Irish Aviation AuthorityAviation HouseHawkins StDublin 22. Civil aircraft may only land at an aerodrome subject to the terms of S. I. No. 355 of 2008 IrishAviation Authority (Aerodromes and Visual Ground Aids) Order and subject to any direction issuedthereunder.3. Most aerodromes listed are subject to intermittent use and may deteriorate during prolonged periodsof disuse, especially in winter. No guarantee can be given as to the accuracy of the informationgiven. Operators need to contact the licensee for permission to use the aerodrome and for up-todateinformation on aerodrome conditions. It is recommended that prior permission be obtained atleast 24 hours prior to the intended operations.4. Endorsed on all licences, issued for all the listed aerodromes, is a condition that "The aerodromemay be used only with the prior permission of the licensee and only so long as the licensee is theoccupier of the aerodrome". Pilots who overlook the requirement to obtain the prior permission ofthe licensee may not be aware of the gravity of this oversight. In one instance, the aerodromesurface was damaged and the pilot and passengers were placed at risk. In another instance, pilotshave operated into an aerodrome unaware that parachuting was in progress at that aerodrome. Ineach case safety was compromised. Aircraft movements at any aerodrome without the licensee’spermission can be the subject of a Mandatory Occurrence Report (MOR).5. It is a fundamental obligation on a licensed pilot that he/she should be aware of, and comply with,Civil Aviation regulations, which are designed to ensure the safety of pilots, passengers and thepublic.6. A responsibility rests on both the pilot and the aerodrome licensee to ensure that the "priorpermission only" condition endorsed on an aerodrome licence is observed.7. The Geographical co-ordinates of aerodromes published in this AIC do not meet the requirementsspecified in ICAO Annex 14, Chapter 2 and Annex 4, Vol. I & II, Chapter 2.8. Aeronautical information relating to Cork, Dublin, Shannon, Connaught, Donegal, Galway, Kerry,Sligo, Waterford and Weston airports is available in AIP Ireland. These airports may be used forVFR operations, subject to the aerodrome operators’ conditions being met.9. Pilots are reminded that refuelling with engines running is not permitted unless the operator isspecifically authorised to do so by the Irish Aviation Authority._______________________________________________________________________________________IRISH AVIATION AUTHORITY Page 1 of 9
