Moyne Aerodrome was an aerodrome situated north east of Thurles, County Tipperary in Ireland. As of 2008, it was one of only two official aerodromes in County Tipperary.[1]

From the air, this Aerodrome is difficult to find, as there is nothing remarkable that stands out in the vicinity of the airfield. There is a large factory building about one km (0.62 mi) west of the field which may be the best landmark for the airfield. Features include a small hangar in the northwest corner of the field and a small windsock about 100 metres (330 ft) into the field from the threshold of runway 20. Overhead power cables on the approach to runway 20 should be considered when approaching.[2][needs update]
