Foula Airfield is an airfield located on the remote island of Foula, part of the Shetland Islands in the north of Scotland.
The airstrip opened in the 1970s and is run by the Foula Airstrip Trust, Scottish charity number SC021728. Foula is also served by a ferry service running three times a week but it is claimed that tourists prefer the short flight to the 135 minute ferry crossing. Also, the ferry is based on Foula, so a day trip to the island is only possible by air. The flights are used to transport essentials such as prescriptions to the island, which has a population of 38.
