meteo?
Is there a weather station providing meteorological reports for the aerodrome?
Stunning New Aerodrome
Impressive work on the aerodrome and the website! It’s clear a lot of dedication has gone into both the operations and the online presence. Looking forward to seeing continued growth here. Well done!
Cape Town's Newest Private GA Field!
Atlantic Aerodrome is Cape Town's newest private General Aviation airfield, located in the scenic Swartland wheat fields just off the N7 (less than 30 minutes from the CBD). Currently operational in phased development, with full opening planned for September 2026. Features include an 854m asphalt runway (02/20), edge lighting, planned APAPI approach lights, helipad, and fuel (MOGAS, AVGAS, Jet A-1). Private use – Prior Permission Required (PPR). Radio: 124.4 MHz (traffic/UNICOM/CTAF-style). Visit www.flyatlantic.co.za for more details and to arrange visits. Looking forward to welcoming fellow pilots!
Cape2Pole Start
I choose this airfield to start my Cape to North Pole MSFS2020 VR adventure. Next stop: FAWC
Subantarctic research station
This research station is administratively part of Cape Town, despite the fact that it's over 2,100 km away.
No runway visible
I'm assuming the road doubles as a landing strip, but with the curve, it would be challenging.

Hi all
I have taken over the operation of FADS (De Doorns) private airstrip. I extended the runway to 1000m and 20m wide. Please contact me beforehand for use of the airstrip.

A must!
Indeed! Nice infrastructure n cool people! Good place to practice crosswind landings.
The Best of the Best
A small airfield with a big heart. Over week-ends it hums with aviation enthusiasts. Anything from the most basic microlight to the bigger single engine commercial aircraft. Great restaurant and food!!!

Reply to @ODN:
Not Bredasdorp Airfield.
The airfield shown is no longer in service. This is now a private farm. Cows on the runway. New Bredasdorp Airfield on Road between Bredasdorp and Arniston
Hermanus airfield
Can anyone remember when it was closed?
High Way Airfield - Homebase
This is home base for some 25 odd recreational flyers from Knysna on the Garden Route of South Africa
owner:
Apparently Langeberg Municipality owns it, Robertson Flying Club operates it
active?
I guess two soccer fields and a fence means this runway is no longer active?

Air Strip and Hangers
Hi There, i was wondering weather you can help me. I am a researching for Migrate Films Company and have been back and forth trying to find dusty air strips with Hangers (kind of deserted) so small landing strips are what we are looking for to pitch for this international shoot. I have looked for the air strips in the follwing places between Pottsville & Eendekuil- Malmesbury, Wellington, Tulbagh, Loeriesfontien, Niewoudtville, Calvinia, Sutherland. I cannot seem to get my hands on any photographs. Do you have any suggestions who might or where i might be able to find? sorry if this is the incorrect forum for this my research on these places has just lead me to here and desperate times call for desperate measures.
If you do have any suggestions pls get back to me at frances@atomikpictures.com. It would be such a great help to just talk with someone who knew these smaller landing strips.
Thanks so much
Frances

hermanus airport flight simulator
here are directions for testing the proposed new hermanus airport in FSX: avcom.co.za/phpBB3/viewtopic.php?f=11&t=111010
and here is a discussion thread regarding the proposed design on a South African pilots enthusiast forum: avcom.co.za/phpBB3/viewtopic.php?f=1&t=94929
Home Base correction
Hi guys
Just to clarify, Mango (738's) and Comair (Kulula.com and the local British Airways operator with various 737 models) only have pilot bases in Cape Town, along with SA Express (CRJ2 and DH4Q) , SAA (738's) and SA Airlink (ERJ and Avro RJ's). This is not the 'home' bases of these airlines. All of them have the Head Offices in Johannesburg (OR Tambo International).
Its not a biggie, I know...but still, its more correct.
Frequencies
Frequency 119.8
In summer season, December to April Golf strip (5 km south of Bredasdorp) is a fire fighting base with fixed wing aircraft and a helicopter which operates on 121.75 and will keep a listening watch on 119.8.
The most Southern Strip in Africa

re: airfield
maybe one day this no-airport problem can be fixed: flytek.effectivehosting.co.za/quayside/airfield/
position
I think the position marker is way off and should be nearly two miles south of the marked position
Lat 33 42 38.76 south
Long 19 01 27.80 east
The Google earth marker is closer
re: airfield
"You cannot directly travel to Hermanus by air as we do not have an airport. (It made way for much needed housing development.)"
airfield
This airfield does not exsist
Amazing
Well well, the Boland is up and coming. This should make life a lot easier for people going in that direction in the future. Will take off a lot of frustration getting out of Cape Town and on the way. Maybe rugby getting a boost up that way?

Proposed development
Do any one knows about proposed development around the airport?
Is it for sale?
What would be a fair price for the property and how big is it in total?
Info
I would like to know the history about Somersveld Airport. Where can I get Info ?.
re: Nice Airport

Food/lodging/flying
Land, taxi to within 50 meters of your room, dine on the finest Karoo lamb, then have a sundowner in the old tower.
Great Place
What an awesome airport and the guest house right there (Karoo Gateway) treated us like royalty.
Nice Airport
I would have bought it if I had the money :-)

Reply to @Gkikas_LGPZ: None yet,No, we don’t have a weather station providing met reports for the aerodrome yet. We know it would be really useful and we’re actively looking into getting one, but we’re still researching the best option for our setup.
Do you have any recommendations for a good weather station suitable for our airfield?
Thanks!
