I believe it operates solely for the maintenance facility based there so if you call Brinkley Aircraft Services 01462 813664 you should get all the gen you need.

I fly my Robin Regent into Meppershall regularly for maintenance. If you want to see a classic polished floor/ operating theatre -type operation, check it out. I wouldn't use anybody else.

They will also lend you a car if available ( I borrowed a very swoopy BMW once).

The strip is approx North/ South and long enough to get light twins in.It is generally in beautiful condition but prone to waterlogging in the winter months.

Planning constraints prevent its use on a Sunday.

Despite there being no hangarage for private owners, several privately owned machines operate from there.

It is clearly a strip operated in connection with business. If you are granted permission to use it - lucky you!

All movements to the West, simply becaue a circuit to the East will result in conflict with the busy Henlow circuit.

I hope this helps.
