Andrewsfield Aerodrome near Braintree in Essex traces back to a Second World War military airfield and today serves general aviation and flight training.

Its neighbour matters more: London Stansted (STN), one of the UK's leading freight airports with integrator and freighter bases, lies only about 15 km away and is the logical gateway for air cargo out of Essex and north-east London.
