Lamb Holm Airport (EG62) -  take off and landing

Lamb Holm is a cute private airstrip located on the island of Lamb Holm at the Orkney Islands. It is a PPR airfield so you need to contact the owner before deciding to land there. However, there was no problem obtaining his approval and very friendly assistance.

The airfield has two grass runways 06/24 which is 640 metres long and 15/33 which is 340 long. It is advisable to check the runway before landing or take off in order to make sure that there is no cattle or sheep. The animals are kept behind barbed wire but….. The airfield is not very busy so it is sufficient on landing to check the wind and join the appropriate circuit in the correct position and land. Of course, runway 06/24 is better due to its length. 

Lamb Holm is quite close to the commercial airport of Kirkwall. It is therefore necessary to maintain communication with Kirkwall TWR during both – arrival as well as departure.

Take offs and landings video series Our new video series „Take offs and landings“ will bring to you every Wednesday one video taken during a take off or landing during one of Flying Revue flight expeditions. Flying Revue expedition aircraft have landed already at more than 400 airports and airfields around the globe. For many reasons, not all our take offs and landings have been videoed. However, the number of videos which we have on file is permanently growing. So the new video series „Take offs and landings“ is very well stocked. You can watch these videos free of charge either just for your interest or as part of preparations for your own flight to some of the airports shown in these series.
