Lancashire Aero Club was established in 1922, is the oldest active flying club in the UK and possibly the world. It was based at Barton Aerodrome from 1947 until early 2007 but has now left for another venue, although we are actively seeking an airfield of our own.

Sherburn airfield asks that members wishing to claim a free landing and/or fuel concession announce this over R/T before landing, to avoid paperwork complications.

A current membership card must be produced before payment to take advantage of these concessions. Please note that this arrangement is for one full-stop landing at a partner airfield per visit. "Touch-and-goes" are NOT covered by the landing card.

The committee would welcome feedback from members on the landings concessions and how they are operating, please send your views to the email address below.
