Cumbernauld Airport
Cumbernauld Airport is located 16nm northeast of Glasgow and is handily placed for anyone visiting the city or Edinburgh. The airport provides a range of services for pilots visiting the aerodrome and has an 820m asphalt runway and self-service fuelling with avgas and Jet A1.
The airfield is PPR, which can be gained by telephone, email or by application form. In IMC conditions, suitably equipped aircraft may let down at Glasgow or Edinburgh and proceed to Cumbernauld VMC.
Castle Kennedy Airfield
Castle Kennedy Airfield is centred between Northern Ireland, Prestwick, Carlisle, Blackpool and the Isle of Man. All General Aviation aircraft are welcome.
The airfield is unlicensed, and used at the pilot’s own risk and discretion. The airfield is strictly PPR, due to agricultural and other activities. Visitors are requested to complete a booking form or telephone using the numbers in the contact section.
There is no radio frequency for Castle Kennedy, however Scottish Information can give information on Danger Area activity. The Airfield frequency in use is Safetycom, and pilots should use blind calls for Castle Kennedy Traffic from 10nm inbound.
