Currently, there is no airport in Grudzi\u0105dz itself. But the aviation history of this city is very rich. The Vistula Aeroclub operating on the northern outskirts of the city is a reference to the long-standing aviation tradition in Grudzi\u0105dz. In 1921, the Higher School of Pilots was founded, which was then transformed into the Aviation Officers’ School. This school was moved to D\u0119blin, where it operates until now (2022) as the School of Eaglets. But that was not the end of Grudzi\u0105dz’s aviation history. The Aviation School of Shooting and Bombing was established in the facilities of the former aviation school. In 1934, the Glider Club was established, the nucleus of the future Aeroclub, which later received the name of the Grudzi\u0105dz Aeroclub. In 1936, the Higher School of Pilotage was established for military pilots, graduates of other military schools. The traditions of the Grudzi\u0105dz Aeroclub began to be continued by the Vistula Aeroclub in a new place, in Lisie K\u0105ty.<\/p>\n Lisie K\u0105ty is a small settlement north of Grudzi\u0105dz, which is separated from Grudzi\u0105dz by the Osa River (the right tributary of the Vistula). In 2011, the village was inhabited by 90 people. There is a Iron Foundry, a kitchen furniture factory and two service plants in the village. Access to the village is provided by a municipal road that connects to the National Road No. 55 and No. 16.<\/p>\n National Road No. 55 connects Nowy Dw\u00f3r Gda\u0144ski (National Road No. 7) with the town of Stolno (National Road No. 91). It is 123 km long and runs north-south. It runs through the towns of Sztum, Kwidzyn and Grudzi\u0105dz.<\/p>\n National Road No. 16 is a road running from Dolna Grupa near Grudzi\u0105dz to the border with Lithuania in Ogrodniki. It runs latitudinally through the following voivodships: Kujawsko-Pomorskie, Warmi\u0144sko-Mazurskie and Podlaskie. It is the main communication route in Masuria.<\/p>\n The airport has the ICAO code: EPGI. Radio: Lisie K\u0105ty-Radio 119.885 MHz, 122.8 MHz. Ground take-off field. The main RWY has dimensions of 1,190 m (950 m) x 200 m and is laid out in the direction 136\/316 (13\/31). There is also an RWY with dimensions of 660 m x 200 m, in the direction of 062\/242 (06\/24).<\/p>\n Contact: Lisie Katy 20, 86-302 Grudzi\u0105dz, phone +48 56 4681832, +48 601 670 657. Access to the airport from the center of Grudzi\u0105dz (12 km) is possible from National Road No. 55 and National Road No. 16.<\/p>\n The airport is located in a picturesque part of Poland. To the west is the Vistula River, and behind it Bory Tucholskie. To the east is the I\u0142awa Lake District. To the south is the Che\u0142mi\u0144skie Lake District. These areas are thermally good, which makes them ideal for glider flights. The landing field is large, but on flying days there is a lot of traffic in the air: gliders, motor hang gliders, planes. Currently (2022) the Vistula Aeroclub runs the following sections: gliding, airplane, ballooning and modeling. Hostel is run in the building of the flying club.<\/p>\n Written by Karol Placha Hetman<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Currently, there is no airport in Grudzi\u0105dz itself.
