Operated by: The Duke of Hamilton, later Mr Jim McTaggart
Location: S of Gullane, roughly 4nm SW of North Berwick
Period of operation: 1990s & 2000s only?
Archerfield in 2013
Runway: 06/24 558 grass
Note: On Google Earth there is a clear sign that this runway either was, or is intended to be, 765 metres long.
NOTES: It is well worth reading the AAIB report EW/G2005/08/12 as it seems the Mooney M20J registered N201YK was based here. The report states it force landed on a field nearby intended to be a future airstrip.
Ready to load XX690
In early 2013 seven aircraft were based here including a Beagle Bulldog XX690 which I moved to a site near DUXFORD.
