Damyns Hall Aerodrome (ICAO: EGML) is an operational general aviation aerodrome, located 2 nautical miles (3.7 km; 2.3 mi) south of Upminster in the London Borough of Havering, England.

Damyns Hall Aerodrome is an unlicensed airfield from which some flying instruction takes place and is run by Damyns Hall Aerodrome Limited. The Aerodrome is headquarters to the Rochester Microlights Club and flying school.

It is also home to Microlight Sport Aviation Ltd, another flying school based at Damyns Hall flying the Flight Design CTSW aircraft and Learn to Fly, a flex-wing microlight school and tandem hang gliding air experience school. Damyns Hall Aerodrome has an Air/Ground radio service as Hornchurch Radio on 119.550 MHz.

The aerodrome grounds are currently home to the annual (early August) Military and Flying Machines show.

Over the years the aerodrome has also been subject to local residents raising issues to the local authority regarding noise pollution.

Since 2013 Damyns Hall has been home to the We Are FSTVL.

The FAI has awarded the UK the right to host the World Microlight Championships in 2016. Damyns Hall has been selected as the host aerodrome, which will be run by members of the BMAA with Rob Hughes as event director and Rob Grimwood as competition director.
