This gliding field is no more, and the gliding club has move
After the gliding club based at Den Helder Naval Station ("de Kooy") was forced to find a new place to fly due to increasing off-shore helicopter traffic based at this NAS as well, the club found this farmer's field in Middenmeer (Wieringermeer). This glider-only field has now been decommissioned after utilities company Nuon took an interest in their field to put up a few windmills and made an offer to move the entire club and its operations to a new field just south of Hypolitushoef. Brand new field, facilities, all of it, very nice. The new addres is Hippolytushoeverweg 15a, 1774 MK Slootdorp, Netherlands and they can be reached on w3-zweef-nl or +31 6 22537070.
Never again possible ...

Nice looking airport!
I'm having fun with the simulator. I like to use airports in Germany to test the sim. I would like, however, to visit this airport someday.

Interesting approach. Fly down the little fjord and then climb to land. Optical illusion that the runway is short since there is a jump mid fields.

This marvellous airport does not have lit runways.

Closed since 2000. How can be in "acceptable condition" in 2018? At least chech more recent photos !!!
Mod Base
Certainly is an interesting airfield to land at, big wide runway. Not a lot to do there other than have a tea or coffee. Being a military getting on and off can be a little difficult%. Bring photo ID if you want to go off camp and allow extra time to be ferried on and off camp.
Friendliest airport/club
We arrived there in G-FIZZ back in October we were treated to a tour of the museum and biplane aircraft. The club chairman insisted we put our aircraft in the hanger for the night.
Looking forward to returning.

Private airstrip of the "Monte do Pombo". Using Google Earth's historical imagery function we can see the runway seems to have been built somewhere between 2012-2014. Seems to be in good condition.

It is the best Airport in lower saxony.
Wrong latitude

correct position (coordinates) for ENLA are N 57 06.70 E002 50.80
The best green airfield
Firm gras strip, also when wet. Fuel station with avgas, mogas and Jet A-1. Very good restaurant. Lovely flying area. Perfect field for a jump to or from the UK .

I agree to last comment, I got my PPL here from Mrs. Elvira Walch leader of flightschool in 1987
Comment to Nummela's Touch & Go statement here within
Rather than prohibiting small excersizes , like T & G, I would argue that wize PR towards locals directed from the airfield administrators could benefit both sides of noise argument people more. By inviting those few "too-much-noise"-accusers (and they are few) to one or two rides in a plane could prove beneficial to the whole community in the long run. Simple PR. Yours Jyri V.

Taxi
Taxi to Dublin Centre was EUR 27, which is comparable to Uber.
Airfield closed
Airfield closed to traffic since at least 5 years I believe. Has a public road crossing the former runway. A chapel on the site is dedicated to Our Lady of Loreto, considered the patron saint of air travellers and pilots by the Catholic Church.

new airstrip around Tavira
Any news today of a new location of a runway around Tavira ?
Thank. Philippe (philiberj@orange.fr, 925855241)

It's called West Wales Airport these days. And it's not in Aberporth, it's in Blaenannerch. It was called Aberporth Aerodrome back in the days when it was purely for use by MoD Aberporth (which was never in Aberporth but in nearby Parcllyn). Then again, "Aberporth" is a lot easier to spell.than "Blaenannerch." And a lot easier to say than "Parcllyn" (the Welsh double-ell isn't what a non-Welsh person thinks it is). But "West Wales Airport" is even easier.
It's never been the same since they extended the runway and re-routed the B4333 so it wasn't close to the end of the runway. There used to be traffic lights on that road for when a plane was taking off or landing, and a sign that meant "give way to low-flying aircraft."
Grass air strip in beautiful surroundings ...
EDFT is a small local grass airfield right in the middle of Vogelsberg, one of the most beautiful and "flight worthy" parts of Germany. Fly in to sight-see or chat with us, we would be more than happy to welcome you.
We have a 680m grass landing strip in mint condition, MTOW 2000 kg for air planes and 4700 kg for helicopters. Local frequency is 122,175, call sign is lauterbach.info. Open SAT/SUN 14h MET to SS, other times PPR. We have MOGAS, but NO AVGAS and various non-alcoholic drinks and small snacks are available at nominal cost, Lodging is available in immediate vicinity and there is MUCH to see ...
Current situation regarding visits
I would lime to visit Cazaux, but understand public visits were not allowed. Is that still the case? If so, is there somewhere outside the base where the aircraft can be viewed?

Major activity of gliders Fri, Sat and Sun. TMG and UL approved, but LSA like Cessna, Piper not, because of noise level.
