Mourne Flying Club

Mourne Flying Club Keeping you up to date with the flying activities in Mourne. Aughrim Airfield is situated at the heart of the Mourne Mountains.

It lies between two mountains, Knockcree (West) and Aughrim (East). The strip orientation is 17 and 35, it is 500yds long. Due to a significant upslope landing on 35 and takeoff on 17 is best advised. It is a friendly strip with several active aircraft. Derryogue (Kilkeel) is a 800m long runway 01/19 with clear approaches at both ends. Tea and coffee and toilets are located at both airfields and

very friendly with active flyers! If you fly around the Mournes at all, give us a call on 123.450, there might not always be someone on frequency; but it's good to know about other possible traffic in the vicinity. PPR is advised, so look us up in Pooleys, Aviators Guide to Ireland or Kevin Glynn's Flight Guide, or any other questions you can ask on this page.
