Ardmore Airport

About Us

Physical
Ardmore Airport is located on the southern fringe of the Auckland urban area, some 33km south of the central business district, 11km east of Manukau City and 5km north-east of Papakura township.

Airside
Ardmore has one sealed runway (Runway 03/21 1411m x 45m); and two grass runways (Runway 07/25 597m x 18m; and Runway 03/21 518m x 18m). There is a parallel taxiway to the south of the main sealed runway and two parallel taxiways connecting the northern side of the airfield with the main runway. Adjacent to these is an apron area by the Tower where there is also an enclosure for sustained aircraft engine testing.

Runway lighting is provided on the main sealed runway 03/21 for night operations and is Pilot Activated. The lighting also includes PAPI at both ends. More detailed information concerning the operational facilities is available in the Operations Manual.
