It is quite a while since I visited these 2 airfields, 2014 to be precise (A-B AGM).

Then Kidlington was like Fort Knox, though I believe it is more relaxed now, and Enstone has had problems with rogue spotters.

How does one go about spotting at Kidlington and is it OK to visit Enstone.

Kind regards

As far as I know, and it is a few months since I was last there, you can drive into the Kidlington airfield "estate" - the old security hut is not normally manned. Use one of the car parks and then walk around the landside area, which will give some views onto the airfield and towards the hangars, although some face onto the airfield and therefore the contents cannot be seen. Airbus Helicopters can be sensitive so best not to linger near their hangars.

Also watch this space for the 2022 AGM.....
