By Road: From the M40 Junction 4, take the A4010 (Aylesbury Road) turn. Go to the third roundabout and turn left (signposted Lane End). One mile on, the airfield is on the right (signposted Wycombe Air Park). There is a main car park about 50m on the right. By Rail: High Wycombe is served by Chiltern Railways. A regular service operates from London (Marylebone) and Birmingham. The rail journey from London takes around 30 - 40 minutes. From High Wycombe a taxi journey takes around ten minutes. Alternatively, bus service 315 operates from the town centre and takes around 20 minutes to the Air Park. By Air: There is a tarmac runway and a grass runway for powered aircraft on R/W 24/06.
