Cruchfield Manor
CRUCHFIELD MANOR: Private airfield
Note: Both of these pictures were obtained from Google Earth ©. In May 2020 Mr Graham Frost kindly sent me a diagram showing where the runway was. It may not be totally precise of course, but a great help for this 'Guide'.
Operated by: Air Pegasus
Activities: Air taxi and executive charter
Location: NE of Wokingham
Period of operation: 1972 (?) to ?
NOTES: It appears that Air Pegasus didn't stay here very long, before moving to PRESTON CANDOVER in HAMPSHIRE, probably in 1973? If anybody can kindly provide more information about this site, this will be most welcome.
In September 2017 I was contacted by Will Jackson who told me he saw Piper PA-23 Aztecs here in the 1970s. This certainly 'fits the bill' for Air Pegasus.

We'd love to hear from you, so please scroll down to leave a comment!
