Military users: Used by Army AOP Austers in WW2, and many other types since it seems. The Camp itself in more recent years has several helipads.
Location: Otterburn village is on the A696, about 30nm NW of Newcastle-upon-Tyne. The ranges are now part of the SPADEADAM WRDA/AIAA.
A look at Otterburn Camp on Google Earth (image date 2009) shows two roughly 'dumb-bell' shaped areas, (hard), marked with an 'H' pretty much in the centre of the camp. There are four 'hard' circular areas nearby, presumably also for use by helicopters.
