What Travelers Say

AI-Generated Summary Based on web research

Grasslands Airfield (ZA-0320) in Centurion, ZA, is primarily a small private airfield catering to general aviation, flight training, microlights, and drones, rather than commercial air travel. Overall traveler sentiment appears positive among the aviation community it serves, with the Grasslands Flying Club describing itself as a "Paradise in Centurion". Due to its nature as a private airfield, traditional "traveler reviews" as found for commercial airports are not available, and experiences focus on flying activities and club facilities.

What Travelers Love

Dedicated General Aviation Hub: The airfield is well-regarded as a facility for microlights, drones, and various light sport aircraft (LSA), private pilot license (PPL) training, and gyrocopters.
Flight Training Excellence: It hosts several SACAA Approved flight schools, including UAV Industries (for drones), Centurion Flight School, and Epic Aviation/ParamotorSA (for powered paragliding and paratrikes), offering high-rated instructors.
Pilot-Friendly Facilities: The airfield features a 900-meter gravel runway suitable for general aviation aircraft. There are also hangars available for various aircraft types.
Community and Social Aspect: An older review mentions a "Fokker Bush Pub" on the airfield, suggesting a social atmosphere for aviators.

Common Complaints

Limited Commercial Amenities: As a private airfield, there are no traditional terminal facilities, security checkpoints, or customs/immigration services.
Runway Discrepancy: While the flying club website implies a 900m gravel runway, older forum discussions show some historical confusion regarding the exact length of the grass/gravel runway, with some mentioning 540m.
Obstacles on Approach: Pilots should be aware of trees and powerlines on long finals for both runways 14 and 32.
No Fuel Available: An older review indicated that there was no fuel available at the airfield.

Grasslands Airfield serves as a vital hub for general aviation and flight training in Centurion, offering a welcoming environment for pilots and enthusiasts. Its strengths lie in its specialized training schools, accommodating facilities for light aircraft, and apparent strong community focus, though those expecting a commercial airport experience will find it differs significantly.
