Warrington - Nearest Strip?
Hi guys,
Have a business meeting in Warrington Cheshire to go to. Want to fly as it's a 10 hour round trip in the car. Apart from the obvious aerodromes, there appears to be very few smaller strips. I have a PA28 Archer so nothing too short/bumpy but grass is fine. Any ideas? I did see Stretton (which looks good on Google Earth) but can't find any info on it on line (probably a housing estate by now...
)
Any thoughts?

Stretton can still be used with the landowners permission although you dont land on the old runway, its a 400m length of taxi way running along side the old runway. I landed there sometime last year but my passenger knew the land owner. Cant be much more helpfull than that im afraid.
There is also a strip next to the M6 motorway that is only a couple of miles away from Warrington. It looks to be 700m+ but dont know anything more about it.
