Hi Uzzy, Hope that you will find the following interesting aircraftspotting.co.uk/gloucs.phb Apparently there is a Manned Fire Service Point near to the Hellipad and it is from here that the Firemen give escorted tours of the helicopters. I believe a donation of £4 ish is requested, which goes into a Local Charity. I hope this helps. Happy Spotting DOUGLAS12(Norman).

Hi Uzzy
The car park that you require is the off 'Southam Lane',
Leave Cheltenham on the A435 (Evesham Road), and head towards 'Bishops Cleave', after you go past a sign on your left hand side for 'GE Aviation', turn right at the traffic lights, into 'Southam Lane', the car park is on your right hand side, once in the car park, walk up the hill, the racecourse Grandstand should be on your right hand sied, and you will come to the Helipad.
any probs, contact me
Regards
Stearman
