Operated by: 1980(?) to -: Draycot Flight Centre
Location: 5nm SSE of Swindon, 2nm ESE of WROUGHTON
Runways: 1990: 18/36 535x30 grass 08/26 350 grass
2000: 18/36 535x30 grass (Did 08/26 actually disappear for a while?)
2001: 18/36 600x30 grass 08/26 350 grass
2017: 18/36 730x30 grass
NOTES: I well remember landing here many years ago. The N/S runway was downhill when approaching from the south. The runway undulations were/are so extreme I expect you’d nearly disappear from sight at times when taking off or landing. Good fun. The detail view shows that DRAYCOT FARM has become very popular since my visit in 1996.
