Mitchells Farm
MITCHELL'S FARM: Private airstrip and model flying
Note: All four of these pictures were obtained from Google Earth ©
Operated by: Mr Adrian Furness
Location: Just SE of Wilburton village, roughly 5nm SW of Ely
Period of operation: 1990s (?) to -
Runway: 01/19 660 grass
NOTES: It seems that in 2016 at least, the Piper J3C-65 Cub G-AKRA was based here. It appears that this aircraft served with the USAAF in France towards the end of WW2. At some point it was registered in Italy as I-FIVI. Also apparently based here, for a time, was the Piper PA-18-135 Super Cub G-BSHV. Also previously registered abroad, in Belgium, as OO-GDG.
As always in this 'Guide', if anybody can kindly offer advice, this will be most welcome.
A FLEETING VISIT
Note: This picture was kindly sent by Martin Pole in January 2022. He flew the Grumman AA-5 G-BSTR into here on the 22nd June 2005.
