Note:  The first picture was obtained from Google Earth ©. The second area view is from my Google Earth © derived database.







Operated by: Mr Peter E L Lamyman
 

Location: Just N of South Kyme village on the B1395, roughly 5nm SW of RAF CONINBY, about 7nm NE of Sleaford

Period of operation: 1971 to 1986?


Runway:  Possibly?   11/29   460   grass

Note: The 1999 picture above appears to show evidence of the runway?

 

NOTES: It seems that in the mid 1970s the Cessna 170B G-APVS was based here. A bit more delving reveals that G-APVS was registered to Mr Peter E. L. Lamyman at Grange Farm, South Kyme from 12.08.71 to 08.10.86. We have Mr Graham Frost, a great friend of this 'Guide' to thank for pinning down this location. 

If anybody can kindly offer more advice and information, this will be most welcome.
