Sittles Farm Airstrip is a small private grass airfield near Alrewas in Staffordshire, England, offering two crossing grass runways suited to light aircraft and microlights. Sited at 187 feet amsl, it is a modest farm strip typical of many such private airfields scattered across the English Midlands, with no instrument approaches or lighting.
Sittles Farm Airstrip is a private grass airfield located near the village of Alrewas in Staffordshire. It is a small farm strip rather than a licensed commercial aerodrome, with short grass runways that make it suitable for light single-engine aircraft and microlights. For the simulator pilot it offers a quiet, rural Midlands destination away from controlled airspace and busier traffic patterns.
The airstrip lies at coordinates 52.7059, -1.7516 near Alrewas, Staffordshire, at an elevation of 187 feet. As a small farm strip without a published air traffic zone, it sits within the general uncontrolled Class G airspace typical of this part of the English Midlands.
Sittles Farm Airstrip has two physical grass runways. Runway 09/27 measures 1539 feet, and runway 17/35 measures 1429 feet. Both are grass surfaces with no runway lighting, and the field has no instrument landing system.
The airstrip has no instrument landing system and no other published navigational aids, so any approach must be flown visually. No published radio frequency or air traffic service is recorded for the field.
The village of Alrewas, after which the strip is named, provides the main visual reference for locating the airfield in the surrounding Staffordshire countryside.
Sittles Farm Airstrip continues to operate as a private grass airstrip, with runway lengths suited to light aircraft and microlight operations rather than larger types. As with many private farm strips, prior permission is likely required before any visit.
