Brighton City Airport (EGKA) Webcam, Shoreham-by-Sea

If you’ve ever wondered what it’s like to sit in an airport control tower with the empty runways stretching out before you, watch this Brighton City Airport live feed and you’ll find out. Don’t worry, you don’t need to refresh your screen. It is a live feed, but one where nothing moves very much and definitely not a screen saver.

Brighton City Airport is near the small town of Shoreham-by-Sea in West Sussex and has been operating at some level or another since 1911. While the airport, or more correctly aerodrome, saw a lot of flying action during both WW1 and WW2, things are quite a bit quieter these days. Now Brighton City Airport is used for the take-offs and landings of private light aircraft, flying lessons and short excursions along the coastline so you could be waiting a while before the next incoming or outgoing flight comes into view.
