I have the week off next week and if the weather is any good I may just spend a couple of days doing farm strips in the Southern half of Wales and in Herefordshire.
Anyone got any good suggestions of places not to miss / contact details?
Isn't someone who posts here regularly based at Eastbach?

Thanks, fellows. Are these in Lockyear's? (Of which I don't yet have a copy!)

Ledbury could pretty much be a licenced airfield...a really excellent strip. (I take my Aztec in there regularly, and that's going some for a farmer's strip!)

Ah, Kingy it's you who's based at Eastbach!
I'll PM you nearer the time and give you an ETA. Currently thinking early next week.

My copy of Lockyear's is in the post, but as I know from Devon some of the best strips aren't in any book.
