Kaipara Flats Aerodrome is a country airfield with a grass runway of over 600 metres, run by the Rodney Aero Club at Newton Road, Kaipara Flats, near Warkworth. The website says the runway is almost always into the wind, and the airfield has its own clubhouse and hangar, along with private hangars that house a range of aircraft. The club owns a Pipistrel Alpha microlight for training and member use.
The airfield is about an hour north of Auckland, at the end of the new motorway and a few minutes west of Warkworth. The club is small and friendly, and flying is mainly at weekends or by arrangement. The Northern Aviators group holds regular pancake breakfasts and fly-ins at the field. The website lists a landing fee of $10 as at 2026, and asks visitors to pay it to help maintain the airfield.
