Border crime causes immense harm to the UK, whether it is the smuggling of people, drugs or firearms, or terrorism related.
There are tens of thousands of light aircraft, helicopters and microlights in the UK, flying in and out of small airfields across the country every day.
Because not every plane and airstrip can be monitored 24 hours a day, the aviation industry, communities who live and work around airports and enthusiasts can play a vital role in preventing crime and maintaining a safe community.
Project Pegasus is an initiative set up to get people who work in aviation or live near airports to join the fight against organised crime and terrorism.
If you see anything that makes you suspicious, tell us, either report a crime online, or by calling 101. If you have a hearing or speech impairment, use our textphone service on 18001 101.
If you suspect possible terrorist activity then you can report possible terrorist activity online, on the Anti-Terrorist Hotline 0800 789 321, or if you suspect an immediate danger, please move away and call 999 now. If you have a hearing or speech impairment, use our textphone service 18000 or text us on 999 if you’ve pre-registered with the emergencySMS service.
If you’d rather report anonymously, then call Crimestoppers on 0800 555 111. Please quote 'Pegasus'.
Please remember: don’t put yourself in a dangerous situation or take any risks; don’t approach anyone you suspect. Report it to us as soon as you can.

If you're an operator or pilot of a general aviation aircraft, you must report international or Channel Islands journeys to or from the UK, unless travelling directly from the UK to a destination in the European Union as specified under sections 35 and 64 of the Customs and Excise Management Act 1979.
The term 'general aviation' describes any aircraft not operating to a specific and published schedule.
General aviation reporting requirements (GAR) are for the operators and pilots of general aviation aircraft who intend to travel to or from the UK.
Please visit the government's general aviation operators and pilots notification of flights page for more information.
