Shenington Airfield

Shenington Airfield is a historic World War II airfield on the edge of the Cotswolds, located on a family-run farm in England. Managed by Shenington Airfield Limited, the site provides facilities for gliding and other light aircraft, with a focus on making the airfield safe and enjoyable for those who use it. Flying operations are run by Edgehill Gliding Centre, which is fully open and welcomes new members.

Its offerings include trial flights and gliding courses, with online booking available through the centre’s website. The airfield also aims to support affordable junior gliding and create more opportunities for the public to enjoy the location, including planned viewing areas and refreshments. Community events and a social scene for airfield users and the wider community are also part of its plans.

Pilots must obtain prior permission to fly through Edgehill Gliding Centre, and are responsible for checking runway and taxi conditions before each flight. Fly-bys and low passes are prohibited
