Flight Deck Cafe Turweston Brackley Northants
« on: July 21, 2017, 07:03:36 am »
I was having the Zed sorted out for it's annual at Greenham Kawasaki Newbury so spent most of the day on a Z1000SX and this is where I ended up.
The Flight Deck Café on the first floor is incorporated in the control tower (3rd floor) and has panoramic views over the runway and surrounding countryside. The Café has only been opened for less than a year and the fodder is excellent. An elevator is available for those less able. Ample parking. Staff very cheery and talkative. Well worth the visit, just off the A43. Postcode NN13 5YD.

Sorry Rae, I don't do Google Maps.  ;)

You're never too old to learn.
The thing is, I like to put the map pin in EXACTLY the right place and trying to find this on maps is time consuming. As you have been there in the flesh you know exactly that right place and would take you no time at all.
I'll try and find it but I'm not going to spend much time on it.
A Google map link really helps.
I hope this explains my position.  ;D ;)

I have spent a bit of time on this one to no avail. Satellite view is not much use to me and Street View in non existent in that area.

So if any one knows it and does do Google Maps please send me a link with the map pin on the Control Tower.
Thank you.

Spent fifteen seconds looking for Turweston Tower and found it no problem Rae...

I don't understand how this info helps you put it on our map but I provide it to show just how easy it is to find.

Simples!

Thanks Brian, now I have seen it I don't know how I missed it, maybe I didn't zoom in far enough.
Now here is a strange thing I can see the tower on your map link but on our Members Map is not there, wierd.

Edit: It's now on the map  8)

I didn't actually 'see' it. I simply put Turweston in the search field and one of the hits was Turweston Tower. If Jon hadn't said it was in the tower we would need a bigger map because putting Flight Deck Cafe in the search field revealed this....
