Default What runways are there in the South of the country?
I am looking for a track, runway or similar that can be used for live mapping. Trying to map a big power 2WD drive car on the road at this time of year is just out of the question...

Thanks in advance

Hullavington is still a signals base, and the airfield is used by 621 & 625 VGS.

Doubt you'd be able to get a car on there!
