Kingswinford Field.

Part of DK Rugby Club, we fly off a very well tended and drained strip off the edge of their rugby pitches. We also use the club bar as a meeting place every Thursday night. Cars should be parked in the normal car park and flying gear carried to and from  the strip. Sometimes car boots fairs and rugby training sessions use the same area at weekends and during the week nights, so NO flying is allowed while these events are in progress.

Flying Times. Mon, Tue, Wed, Thur, Fri, Sat, Sun. 10:00-21:00

Shipley Field

This is our newest flying site (2009). A car park area has been created and a purpose built strip levelled and grassed.

As this is our first year at this site, the site rules will be located at the site and may change during the year. This is currently a 7 day a week flying site and no restrictions on type of aircraft flown.

Entrance is by the narrow track marked in 'Red' from the A454 (Bridgenorth Road) just before Shipley if coming from the direction of Wolverhapton.

 

Claverley Field.

Part of the Claverley Cricket club pitch, we fly off the inner boundary and NOT off the wicket ( for take off or landing ). It is a well drained and maintained surface during the cricket season. During the off season, the grass is maintained by our club. Cars should be parked behind the club house and flying gear carried to and from  the strip. Pit area may change according to wind direction. No flying if a cricket match is scheduled to play at home (planned or in progress!!).

(From Claverley village, just before the Plough pub on your left, turn right. Continue until you come to a cross roads and turn right. The cricket entrance is on your right.)

Flying Times. Mon, Tue, Wed, Thur, Fri, Sat, Sun. 10:00-21:00 ( Cricket matches take precedence).
