Kite flying - CAA permission

[EddieT]

I am aware that you need to apply to the CAA to fly a kite at over 30m.

Does anyone have a contact phone number or web page for the relevant department of the CAA?

I am about to order a kite for training my new falcon, but no point if I can't get permission to use it!

Many thanks,

Eddie

I've been using the system since 2003. This is the address and contact. I have not spoken to them yet this year so I don't know if it is still David Miller.

I have got the application and kite legislation stored on my computer but I can't figure out how to add it to this file. If you PM me I can send it to you by direct email.

Barry,

Thanks for your reply, just what I needed. I'll speak to them first to get an understanding of whats involved and they can probably e-mail me all I need (just tried phoning but he's on voice mail).

Thank you once again.
