I bought my girlfriend an hour trial flight in a Cessna 152, which she carried out today very successfully! She absolutely loved it and wants to give big thanks to her instructor Norman for making her flight so relaxed & fun, she wants to do it all over again!

All of the staff at Andrewsfield were very friendly. Her instructor Norman was very nice, thorough & professional.

A green, rural setting with a nice bar/cafe on site (cash only), where you can sit in or outdoors, watching the aircraft come & go.

Thanks to Norman & all the staff at Andrewsfield for making this day really special for Jo.

Members only club. Can still buy food and drink if not a member but you have to sit outside or in a small marquee if weather not good. Great for members but not so good for anyone else but it does seem to attract cyclists

As always parking is a little bit tight but free the tea is well priced and serviced a nice sized mug 👍
And the absolute highlight was watching a two-seater spitfire take off and land so close you could nearly touch it
The noise is something to behold UPDATE on the car park they have now quadruple size of the car park more than enough space for bikers and cyclists

So myself and our flight simming group just recently had a fantastic few hours on Saturday in the sim seeing if what we'd been taught about how to procedurally fly the 737 had stuck and if we could fly the next best thing to the real thing.

All of us had a blast and we are still giddy about it now, and crying out to come back soon.

There was a warm, welcoming atmosphere from both staff and Andrew as about 15 rumbunctious simmers descended upon you that morning. Thank you for making the day great for us 💙

Amazing day, spitfire display was fantastic and bought a tear to our eyes, remembering all the Polish air crew

I’ve just got home after a 1 hour trial flying lesson in a 2-seater Cessna with Andrewsfield Aviation. The whole experience was fantastic and Norman who normally flies 747s was a great instructor. He took off and landed but most of the time I had the controls! We flew to Colchester, flew around a few of the sights including the zoo, uni and barracks and then flew back. I had such a great time and then had a delicious lunch with my family from their bar, enjoyed outside in the sunshine. Highly recommended! Cash only bar so remember to bring some money!

Went for the excellent food served in the Andrewsfield clubhouse, chosen from an impressive selection from the menu. What I had was well cooked and presented. The clubhouse is nice and the staff are friendly and welcoming. A bonus is the spectacular views across the airfield and beyond.
Saw a large herd of deer grazing on next field to the aerodrome on the way out.
A wonderful place to watch the planes taking off and landing while enjoying a meal, or snack, all very reasonably priced.
