Croydon does still have some flying activity in the form of RC models who have a small mown strip area for their activities. The last time it was used as an airfield was around 1987/88 when the Tiger Club staged an excellent airshow on the site, something which could not be repeated now with the transformation into a proper common, the addition of a stock area where cattle are occasionally allowed to graze and the addition of housing at the western end - not sure what was there in '88.
