Purchased in 2013 by two Gyro Pilots. This airfield oozes atmosphere and its environment, The Isle of Wight is some spectacular flying. Your first overseas flight could be to hear, cross the Solent and you are in some great airspace.

Dan the airfield manager has made some huge changes there and the latest is a section of all weather runway for microlights.

Everyone there will give you a warm welcome. Gyro landing fee is just £9.00 and the guys on the radio are very helpful.

Rufforth Airfield has good facilities making it welcoming for those accompanying a student pilot, as well as the trainee pilot themselves. We have a large patio area with good views across the runways and seating allowing you to sit and watch the comings and goings at this busy airfield. We also have a light airy clubhouse which has recently been refurbished to a high standard and which also provides panoramic views of the airfield and runways.

A beautiful spot on the east of the Isle of Grain. Great to fly to. Just £5.00 landing fee and a great little cafe. Check opening times before you fly.

Very welcoming location

Sackville Flying Club, based in a quiet, pleasant rural location in North Bedfordshire, is home to a lively group of aviators, all of whom are passionate about flying. Within the club are three groups, whose interests span the three disciplines of Gliding, Microlight Flying and Power Flying. Many of our members have interests in more than one discipline, and indeed, some in all three. In addition, Tim has taken up Hot Air Ballooning and as a result we now host many more balloon launches than previously. We also host the annual Grass Roots Balloon Meet each autumn. Sackville Farm is home to an eclectic mix of aircraft, including several Group A aircraft, a self launching motor glider, a self launching sailplane, numerous flex wing and fixed wing microlights and a hot air balloon. This site provides general information about the activities of the Club, a photograph gallery with photographs from events, expeditions and fly-ins and location details for visitors by air and road.
