NOTES: With an airfield like this what’s the bet it’s regularly used by tail-draggers? Having made this comment in about 2002/3 in 2005 I was delighted to discover that in the mid 1970s the Miles M.65 Gemini 1A G-AKHP was the only aircraft listed as being based here and registered to Mr C Spencer-Thomas.
I would much welcome a bit more information about the history of this obviously singular private airfield.
We'd love to hear from you, so please scroll down to leave a comment!
