Sand Lane
SAND LANE: Private airstrip
Note: The first, third and fourth pictures were obtained from Google Earth ©
The second picture is by the author and taken through perspex.
Location: Just E of Sand Lane, just W of NORTH MOOR airstrip, S of the M18 and about 4nm SSW of Scunthorpe town centre
Period of operation: 1990s (?) to -
Runway: 2008= 09/27 310 grass 2015= 10/28 520 grass
NOTES: I had the picture I took when flying past a few years ago listed in my article, "Sites to be identified'. In May 2020 I was very kindly contacted by Mr Andrew Elsom who told me exactly where it was - hence this new entry.
It appears that a Storch, presumably the Fieseler version rather than the smaller and much more recent Slepcev variant, and a Tiger Moth are housed in the hangar at the western end of the runway.
We'd love to hear from you, so please scroll down to leave a comment!
