Fairoaks Airport

Fairoaks Airport (ICAO: EGTF) is a private airfield located on the A319 between the villages of Chobham and Ottershaw in Surrey. It is also located 2 NM (3.7 km; 2.3 mi) north of the town of Woking and is within easy reach of the M25 motorway.

The airport is operated by Fairoaks Airport Ltd, owned by Albermarle Fairoaks Airport Ltd.

Fairoaks Aerodrome has a CAA Ordinary Licence (number P560) that allows flights for the public transport of passengers or for flying instruction as authorised by the licensee (Fairoaks Airport Ltd).

The facility is used as a maintenance airfield but also hosts many light aircraft, some of which are operated by its two resident training schools - Synergy Aviation and London Transport Flying Club. Its business centre is substantially dedicated to aviation-related enterprises, including the headquarters of national organisations such as the European Regions Airline Association and the British Helicopter Advisory Board.

Fairoaks is equipped with navigational aids: coverage is provided by local beacons at Ockham, Midhurst and London Heathrow. There is a small on-site fire and rescue service, comprising two 4WD rescue vehicles.

From 1994, one of the three helicopters of the South East Regional Air Support Unit (Metropolitan and Surrey Police Forces) was located at Fairoaks, and for a time a new dedicated Surrey Police helicopter was based at Fairoaks. In June 2009, the helicopter was transferred to RAF Odiham in Hampshire due to security concerns at the airfield.

There are no restrictions on the number of helicopter movements, although there is a ban on training with the Robinson R22. Fixed wing movements are limited to 120,000 per annum.
