Nether Glastry
NETHER GLASTRY: Private airfield (Aka KILBRYDE)
Note: The first picture was obtained from Google Earth ©. Unfortunately the only picture I could find for the period 2003 to 2009.The local area view is from my Google Earth © derived database.
Location: Just NW of Kilbryde Castle, about 2.75nm NW of Dunblane town centre on the A9, roughly 7.5nm NNW of Stirling city centre
Period of operation: 2003 to 2009 certainly. Perhaps used before and since?
Runways: No defined strips visible. Probably an 'all-over' airfield, very sensible and of course reflecting so many aerodromes from the 'good old days'.
NOTES: We have to thank Mr Graham Frost, a great friend of this 'Guide', for pointing out this location. What we do know is that the X'Air Falcon 912, G-BZWC, was based here, or at least registered to this address, from the 19th May 2003 until the 30th June 2009. However, the hangar, still visible in 2023, seems of a size more than generous than that needed for an X-Air Falcon. So, perhaps other aircraft have been based here?
As always, if anybody can kindly offer advice and information, this will be much appreciated. Pictures are also most welcome.
We'd love to hear from you, so please scroll down to leave a comment!
