## Description

Blackbushe is a general-aviation field, not a freight one: on the A30 south-west of London, it serves flying schools, private owners and charter operators rather than cargo carriers. Laid out in the Second World War as RAF Hartford Bridge, the airport (IATA: BBS, ICAO: EGLK) once flew scheduled services worldwide in the 1950s. In 2025 its parent company acquired resident operator Blackbushe Aviation, and a common-land exchange approved that May clears the way for new hangars and for positioning the site toward electric and eVTOL aircraft. No freight is handled here. London Heathrow (LHR, about 30 km) covers air cargo, while Farnborough (FAB) handles business aviation, both close at hand.
