Operated by:  Fradley Model Flying Club   (Aka  Sutton Coldfield Radio Control Aero Club)


Location:  Just W of the Fradley Distribution Park, (which itself occupies much of the WW2 RAF LICHFIELD airfield), about 2nm NE of Lichfield town centre

Period of operation:  Possibly from the 1970s?  To -


NOTES:  Without any doubt this site occupies the SW end of the WW2 runway 03/21 and part of the perimeter track.

In or around 2020 this club set up an alternative flying site at HADEMORE as it appeared that the existing site would be demolished by the HS2 railway project.
