The airfield is open to visiting aircraft with light wheel loading only (such as Piper Cubs and Tiger Moths) following a period of poor weather. Please note some manoeuvring areas remain slippery and the ground is soft in places, with some areas of standing water and softer muddy patches which should naturally be avoided. Some of the taxiway hold lines are sunken and should be crossed with great care.
Please note: that you can only book up to 24hrs in advance; the slots are divided into half-hour sections with 6 slots in each half-hour and there is a maximum of 40 slots available per day. Therefore, although it may seem there is still capacity, we may already be full. Please enjoy your visit.
After making your booking, you will be directed to the Airfield Arrival Information Page along with a confirmation email. Please take careful note of all of the details in this page.
