Don't know if this is the place I should put this (Or if anybody likes it!?!?  !)  Having seen some people doing this in other forums I thought, what the heck, I'll start one here So... First Airfield Clue 1- BAe Systems serve here Clue 2- Runways 17/35 and 06/24 Clue 3- On island separate to town/city it serves Good Luck!! |

This Airfield was built after a WW2 Bomber pilot made an emergency landing on farmland, which turned out to the perfect place to build it.
Aircraft tested there included the Viking, Viscount, Valiant, Vanguard, BAC 111 and VC10.
The airfield was closed in 1973 and has remained abandoned ever since, it is visable on Google Earth.
The runway 10/28 and taxiways are still there but sadly no buildings.

Have just checked and the address we have for Starspeed Helicopters states 'Blackbushe Airport, Camberley, Surrey GU 17 '
Will agree to disagree !
