Shobdon
EGBS
Set in the heart of the Marches, this welcoming Herefordshire airfield punches above its weight for atmosphere. A busy mix of fixed-wing, microlights, helicopters, gyrocopters and gliders gives it a real community buzz. PPR is essential, and the circuit is strictly prescribed due to neighbour relations — check the diagram before arrival. An excellent gateway to mid-Wales, with friendly staff and competitive fees.
