Closest & easiest to London?

[J32/41]

Hi Guys

What would be the closest and easiest airfield to get to central London from? (Not London City:=)

Not a grass strip and it will be for a PA28.

Thanks

How about North Weald? Good access to town, and needs people to use the airfield, otherwise it faces closure. The closest tube is 2 miles away; easy cab journey, or cadge a lift!

Elstree's close and easy to get into town from.

I don't know of any closer grass strips, but why rule them out?

Denham , 5 min taxi to the station the 30 min train into marylebone
or with good traffic i can do it in 30 min in the car to paddington.
probably cost you £30 with addison lee.

This thread was covered a few weeks back i think!!
Try Southend..1600mts of tarmac, ILS, DME , NDB etc..open 24hrs.
Train station minutes from the airport by cab, straight into Liverpool st around 45mins...

Try Fairoaks, Waterloo to woking dct then quick taxi ride

p.s. Battersea Heliport. With a strong southerly, I reckon it's just possible:ok:
