History of this Location | |
The small, grass runway airfield perched on the Penwith cliffs has been a pleasure flight and general aviation destination for many years, with a fixed wing service to the Scilly Isles (c 25nm to the south west) from time to time.
Following the closure of Penzance Heliport in 2012, plans were announced in 2017 by the Isles of Scilly Steamship Company to re-commence a helicopter service to St Marys (and possibly Tresco) from here, starting in May 2018.
Island Helicopters will be the brand name with Specialist Aviation Services AW169 based in Gloucester.
