Aberporth Airport (IATA: N/A, ICAO: EGFA) is an airport near the town of Aberporth, in the county of Ceredigion, west Wales. The site is being developed as "West Wales Airport" for domestic flights within Wales and the rest of the United Kingdom. The airport is also developing as a centre for the deployment of civil and military unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs).
The nearby MOD range is used for testing rockets by the British military, as well as for launching civil rockets for atmospheric research.
Aberporth Aerodrome has a CAA Ordinary Licence (Number P859) that allows flights for the public transport of passengers or for flying instruction as authorised by the licensee. The aerodrome is not licensed for night use[1].
Strange that this airfield talks of a 5 million pound development but doe not even have a website!
