BROOKFIELD FARM: Private airstrip

Operated by: 1992: Mr H Raby & Sons
 

Location: W of the A14, about 1.5nm W of Huntingdon town centre

Period of operation: 1970s to -

 

Runway: 1992: 03/21   600x18   grass

2016:  02/20   640x18   grass

 

NOTES: In a 1970s listing this airstrip was described as being on Brickfield Farm but I think BROOKFIELD FARM is correct? In the mid 1970s three aircraft were based here it seems; Auster J/1N Alpha G-AIGM, F.8L Falco G-AROT and Victa Airtourer 100 G-ATEX. A small but lovely collection of aircraft.

In 1996-2004, there were three aircraft usually based here: G-BFAP SIAI S.205 (replaced G-AZYZ Wassmer 51 which was there in 1987), G-BPAJ Tiger Moth (replaced Tiger Moth G-ANZU which was there for many years) and G-AXNR Pup-150. Pup 150 G-AXDU left in 1996. The hangar under finals, the slope and the wires are all a lot of fun!
