Rules

Traffic pattern altitude is 800 AGL.
A left-hand traffic pattern shall be used for departures to the south and a right-hand traffic pattern shall be used for landings to the north. Please do not turn to the left on departure until passing over the fence at the end of the runway, then make a 45 degree turn at no higher then 500 feet AG.
Note: Take-offs to the north and landings to the south are discouraged because of the obstacles on the north end of the runway; however, these operations may be performed at the pilot’s discretion (using a right-hand pattern for departures and a left-hand pattern for arrivals).
Straight-in approaches parallel to the highway are not permitted.
Blackwater Creek aircraft operating south of the flight park shall stay at least ¾ mile east of the highway until clear of Cone Ranch, regardless of altitude. (Cone ranch is the property at the south end of the runway)
Incoming aircraft from the west shall cross the highway south of Cone Ranch or north of Blackwater Creek.
Flight in the traffic pattern airspace and over the flight park is not permitted unless you are taking off or you are preparing to land. Please follow the pattern closely and remember that some pilots don't have radios!
Unusual attitude flying over the traffic pattern and over the flight park is not permitted regardless of altitude.
Circling flights and easterly/ westerly transition flights over the traffic pattern and over the flight park must be at altitudes above 800 feet AGL.
Take-offs and landings are to be conducted only on the runway.
No commercial activity of any kind is permitted at the flight park without prior permission.
No flight-for-pay operations of any kind may be conducted at the flight park, except for permitted flight instruction sessions.

Each passenger of aircraft based at the flight park must have a signed and witnessed Release and Waiver form on file at the flight park.
No child under sixteen (16) years of age may be a passenger in an ultralight or experimental type aircraft taking off from the flight park unless the pilot is both the owner of the aircraft and the parent of the child. A witnessed Release and Waiver form must be signed by the parent/ pilot and placed in a designated receptacle prior to the flight.
Each person working in any capacity at the flight park, whether paid or unpaid, must execute a Release and Waiver form prior to work at the flight park.

Owners and pilots of aircraft based at the flight park are expected to participate with Blackwater Ultralight Flight Park in achieving compliance with flight park rules by other pilots and visitors to the flight park. At the least, based aircraft owners are expected to bring unsafe/inappropriate activities to the immediate attention of Blackwater Ultralight Flight Park personnel.
Blackwater Ultralight Flight Park reserves the right to deny use of the flight park to any individual for any reason.

Additional Information for pilots flying into Blackwater and may not be familiar with the airpark:
If you are approaching the airpark from the South, there is a VERY large phosphate plant about 1.5 miles north of the field. This phosphate plant is approximately 3-4 miles South of Zephrhills Airport. On a clear day, the phosphate plant can be seen from as far as 20-30 miles. The airpark is approximately 100 feet EAST of State Road 39 and 1.5 miles south of the phosphate plant. From 800' AGL, it may be difficult for the unfamiliar to spot the field. We suggest you approach from 1000' AGL until you spot and identify the airpark. Then travel East of the field before descending down to traffic pattern altitude of 800' AGL. It is requested by the Airpark owners that we take off on runway 18 and land on runway 36 as much as feasibly possible. This is due to the lack of "decent" emergency landing areas immediately north of the airpark. There are MANY MANY emergency landing areas east and south of the airpark.
Although http://www.airnav.com/airport/9fd2 states we have runway 17/35, most of the local flyers refer to them as 18/36.. 2300' sod. Plenty of runway for most ultralights. We have had a Cessna 182 landing and taking off from Blackwater very regularly. There are very tall trees lining the eastern edge of the runway so use caution if there are any winds which may be "swirling" over or around the trees. Most of the local flyers have landed with a 15-20mph cross winds from the east and still made it safely on the ground without a problem. This is mentioned only as a precaution and to draw your attention to it.
