They then rely on a verbal briefing and pilots remembering that for the hour it may take to get there.
An up to date website and AFE/Pooleys entry with suitable diagrams could well help.
As I explained in an earlier thread, unlicenced airfields are listed in the AIP, but not in the AD section. They are tucked away in the ENR section at ENR 5.5 listed as 'Aerial Sporting and Recreational Activities'' In general however, the listing tells you very little; just lat and long, telephone number and 'type' of actvity.
I thought there was to be a fuller list published and indeed, there was a comprehensive pro-forma available for airfield operators to fill in so as to be included, but if it has been published, I can't find it; you would have thought that (at least) those airfields with a location indicator (EGSX, EGHP, EGMT, EGCR, EGHL, EGHN, EGHS and many others) would be entitled to a more comprehensive listing.
