The Main Runway

The main Elvington runway is more than 3,000 meters long (2 miles), 60m wide and was constructed by the United States Air Force in the 1950s.

In recent years, it has served as a superb venue for many record breaking speed events and is available for testing, filming, aviation and other events.

The runway is still active for visiting pilots, this link gives more information on how to fly into Elvington Airfield.
