Budaörs Airfield is a small private airfield with a pair of grass runways lying just outside Budapest, in Budaörs, Pest county, Hungary. It is best known today as a base for gliding activity, with a modest number of pilots operating from the field, making it a modest but characterful destination for VFR flights around the Hungarian capital.
Budaörs Airfield (ICAO LHBS) is a small general aviation field at Budaörs, on the western edge of Budapest, Hungary. It is a private airfield with a strong association with gliding, and is home base for only a handful of based pilots, giving it a quiet, low-key character quite different from the major airports serving the capital.
The airfield lies at Budaörs, Pest megye, immediately west of Budapest, Hungary, at coordinates 47.4508N 18.9805E and an elevation of 390 feet. No further detail on the surrounding airspace classification or nearby controlled zones is available from the sources consulted.
Budaörs has two parallel grass runways. The longer pair, 09L/27R, is 3195 feet long, while the shorter pair, 09R/27L, is 2913 feet long. Both runways have a grass surface, there is no runway lighting noted, and there is no ILS at the field.
The airfield's common traffic frequency is 124.51 MHz. There is no ILS or other instrument approach aid at Budaörs, so operations are conducted visually.
Budaörs Airfield operates today primarily as a base for gliding, reflected in its designation as a private field with only a small number of pilots based there. The airfield's operator maintains its own website at budaorsirepuloter.hu, and pilots planning a visit should note that, as a private airfield, prior permission is required before flying in.
