Wortham
WORTHAM: Private airfield (aka BROOK FARM)
Note: These three pictures were obtained from Google Earth ©
Operated by: Al Mathie and Dot Mathie
Location: Just SSW of Wortham village on the A143, roughly 2.5nm SW of Diss
Runways: 05/23 400 grass 08/26 230 grass
Later: 05/23 400 grass
NOTES: The initial info about this site came from AAIB report EW/C2008/06/03 concerning the PZL Wilga G-EPZL which suffered a landing accident in June 2008.
When I came to making an entry in this 'Guide' in late 2016, the Google Earth image date was 2007. So, things have changed since. The 2017 picture showing that the 08/26 runway has been discarded.
The third picture, a detail, shows the Auster J-1N Alpha, G-AIGF, which has been in the family, (and presumably based here?), since 1972.
We'd love to hear from you, so please scroll down to leave a comment!
