I have just seen this remarkable map via a link on the Kiwi Pilots FB page:
https://koordinates.com/from/data.li...z/layer/50333/
It shows all the airstrips in New Zealand. There are 3179 of them in a country that is about the same size as the UK*
A lot of those are top-dressing (ag aircraft) strips, but even if you assume only one-third of them are "normal strips", that is still a hell of a lot!
Hw many strips are there in the UK?
* It's 8% larger.
