Eddsfield Airfield Photos

29 Jul 2010 Had great expectations for this airfield today unfortunately it did not live up to them. Runway condition was okay but we did not feel very welcome to be honest. Made a quick getaway before the wind picked up any more. Final approach was a little hairy over the trees with the telephone mast nearby and the x wind did not help. Hope to visit again and have a better time next time. Liam

Nice landing from the west

The best grass strip in the north, bar none.

Crosswind join for 27 on wintry day!

Great visit, to meet someone who lives locally. Arrived on a bright day to find a light snow covering. Identified the strip easily following the road from the S. and matching the roundabout to the clear photo on the informative website. Gusty, and with a SW wind providing a bit of crosswind, I approached over the trees as low and slow as felt OK and then cut the power to drop down to the numbers for a perfect touchdown! Long smooth runway allowed gentle braking and we left nice snowprints down the centre. Type TB200GT - I'll visit again for a photo, in better weather! THANKS for being there and felt VERY welcomed despite there being no-one there! Fun! The camera on final focused on the interior but still interesting!
