Requests for permission to land privately owned aircraft, including helicopters, are occasionally received by my Department. Such requests, usually relating to Casement Aerodrome, Baldonnel, are dealt with on a case by case basis and permission may be granted, subject to operational, security, administrative etc. considerations.
