Note: The first picture was obtained from Google Earth ©. The area view is from my Google Earth © derived database.
Operated by: Cdr. John J Sykes
Location: Just W of the junction with B3335 and B3334. About 3.5nm S of Winchester city centre
Period of operation: 1946 to 1955 (Only?)
Runway: 07/25 360 grass
NOTES: We have Mr Graham Frost, a great friend of this 'Guide' to thank for pointing out this location. Assuming the field layouts haven't changed (?), this appears to be the only field large enough in this exact location. Cdr Sykes had the Auster 5/J1 Autocrat G-AGXB registered to this address from 21.01.46 until 12.04.55.
As far as we are aware, this was the only time that this field was used?
We'd love to hear from you, so please scroll down to leave a comment!
