Yes but in a rural area, they may share the same postcode with an area of dozens (or even hundreds) of acres.
Errr, I think that was my original point!

In my view there is only one way to do this properly .. lat/long. So if you don't have it, use Google Earth to get it (starting with an approximation from the PostCode). Then create an airfield for future use .. you cd even share it with the rest of us!
Lets not clutter up SD with fudges.

Postcodes are great if you want to bimble over your office or a mates house, but I'd say they are of very limited use for locating a farm strip.

I'm assuming that the grass strip isn't just a mowed runway in a random field, but would actually have some sort of buildings there (that are likely to have an address!)

I did not know that fields and grass strips have postal codes.

You're not likely to be looking for a grass strip using its non-existent postcode though!

Indeed, but those areas with large postcode sectors are sparsely populated so you'll still probably find what you're looking for!
Not if it's a grass strip in amongst a load of other similar looking fields

Not sure how well this would work, some postcode areas are probably quite large if they're out in the country aren't they?
