Flight Training at Lydd
Flying training has always been the principle subject for Lydd Aero Club. Situated on the South East corner of England we enjoy better than average weather
A major factor in any training is available airspace. Surrounding Lydd is open airspace up to either 5500 ft in one direction and 7500 ft in the other. Unlike more central training centres most of the training can be carried out within close proximity to the airport therefore minimising both training time and costs to the student.
The airport has the benefit of a 1,500m tarmac runway, 21/03, with approach lighting and PAPI, NDB and ILS/TDME. A VOR/DME (LYD) nearby.
There is an ILS for runway 21 and RNAV is installed for both runways.
Fuel, Avgas and Avtur, is available during operating hours; maintenance facilities are available during operating hours on weekdays.
Within the terminal building is the Biggles restaurant and bar or when closed a small selection of snacks and drinks is available at the main Pilot’s reception area.
