Thats more an airfield than a proper airport - I doubt an airbus could even


taxi on it , much less land. But if you want to include that then we shouldn't


forget about Biggin Hill.



I'm including places which market themselves with "London" in the name.

One of life's big ironies a few years back was a Which? report slagging
off foreign airports that falsely claimed to be close to well known
cities. In the same issue they gave "London Stansted" a ringing
endorsement, despite being further from its eponymous city than any of
the foreign airports they were complaining about.
