RAF Coningsby

RAF Coningsby (EGXC) is a medium airport in Lincoln, Lincolnshire, ENG, United Kingdom. Pilots and dispatchers reference it by ICAO code EGXC or IATA code QCY. It sits in Europe.

RAF Coningsby is a regional airport primarily serving general aviation, charter, and corporate flight departments.

RAF Coningsby sits near sea level at 25 ft.

Local operations run on Europe/London. Without scheduled airline traffic, the field tends to be quieter and more flexible for charter and corporate operations — a useful characteristic for early morning, late night, or short-notice flights that would be impractical at a hub.
