Espinho Airfield (ICAO: LPIN) is a recreational aerodrome serving Espinho in northern Portugal. Originally built for the military, the aerodrome was later reduced in size and handed over to civilian use. After a deadly accident in 2005, a collision between a PA-28 plane and a car on the nearby road, the aerodrome was closed; it has since only been available to ultralight and model aviation. The main airport and runway are closed/ built-over, however the Aero Clube da Costa Verde (Portuguese language) operates a flying club and school for light aircraft, marking off 420 metres (1,378 ft) of the original runway's south end for use.
