2. General information:
The field received the operational permit in the autumn of 2003. The grass-surfaced field lies 5,5 km to the northeast of Nurmijärvi parish village. The field is classified as PRIVATE, and every aircraft planning to visit the field must have permission of the field owner. Classification was adapted because the environmental permit limits the number of daily and yearly operations. The field comprises three buildings: a 450 sq meters hangar, a dry toilet (domestic terminal), and a flight planning building (international terminal). To the right of the end of runway 05 there is a restricted area (sheep farm) registered in the environmental permit. Field over fliers are asked to avoid this area, because flights over this area are registered as flights of of those permitted to operate on the field.

4. The Airport:
There are no obstacles along the edges of the runway, because the field is located in the middle of an agricultural field. The nearest obstacles are the vehicles using a road 400 m from the threshold. The firmness of the grass field is heavily dependent on the weather and the time of the year. Normally the field is usable 2-3 weeks from the melting of ground frost until there is snow. The grass surface of the apron renewed in the summer of 2008.
