My regular aerodrome reviews will hopefully give you useful information and perhaps inspire you to visit somewhere new. Today I take a look around Wolverhampton Halfpenny Green Airfield EGBO.

Good to see Halfpenny Green - Thanks Jon. 60 years ago, my parents took me to an airshow there, and despite not having much money, they paid for me to do a circuit (on my own aged 8) in a Dragon Rapide. From that day, I said if I could afford it, I would learn to fly and 7 years ago, I fulfilled that childhood dream.

“ The Green “ as I call it is my home away from home airfield when visiting my homeland from my incarceration in Australia . It’s a fantastic airfield as you portrayed , I have wonderful memories going back over 50 years of HG . I could fill a book with stories . I’ve also used the Red Lion a few times , a great watering hole with local ales and serving good food too . Thank you Jon , however , I’m now more homesick than ever .😀

I'm fond of EGBO. I visited here on my solo XC and they were extremely friendly and accomodating. Met my mother for a coffee who burst into tears when I got out of the aircraft.

Oh bless her! My mum rings me after every lesson for a de-brief.

If you like a cafe under the control tower, with balcony included you should pop into Sleap airfield. Busy GA field,usually lots to see including a few warbirds, RAF helicopters doing circuits in the week and cheap fuel.

Fantastic airfield, incredibly friendly and a real hive of GA activity. I was very privileged and proud to fly there as part of my QXC for my PPL. Good memories!

Did 40 hours there back in 73. There used to be a scrap Avro Anson you could crawl about in, sadly gone. There was a guy in our group who, in the Red Lion, could down a pint in 3secs, hmm catching isn’t it.😂

Glad you mentioned how friendly they are. I went awry on my first solo and Clive the FISO couldn't have been nicer! They're so lovely to students and the whole place has always seemed welcoming. My original school collapsed...but ended up joining a new one that opened there (with familiar people) rather than switch locations 😂
