Blackbushe

Blackbushe is situated alongside the A30 between Camberley and Hook[?]. The nearest towns are Yateley[?] and Fleet.

Blackbushe comprises an airfield, much reduced in size since its heyday, a British Car Auctions[?] site, a kart track owned by Camberley Kart Club[?], and a small business park. Sunday markets are held on the car auction site.

Unless looking at aerial views or maps, it is hard today to visualise that this was once a significant airport for scheduled flights for London. It is one of several airfields eclipsed since 1958 by the growth of London Heathrow Airport. Based aircraft include several corporate helicopters and a dealership for Beechcraft is established here.
