I'm planning to have a look next week. The airfield is pretty-much intact although most of the buildings have gone now (there's a fairly new control tower though). Helicopters from Culdrose use the airfield most days - don't know if the Jetstreams ever turn-up though. I've never seen 'em at Predannack but I remember seeing the ol' Sea Princes doing circuits at Predannack many years ago. There's still a scattering of aircraft wrecks in the SE corner of the airfield for rescue training and the concrete bits of the launch ramp built for Barnes Wallis is still on the western side of the runway.

Just saw this thread, missed it somehow last month. It's a lovely little place, one wasy of getting there is along the cliff and coast path from Kynance Cove. Here's a navy link to the site http://www.royalnavy.mod.uk/operations-and-support/establishments/naval-bases-and-air-stations/rnas-culdrose/predannack/ and another here http://www.targeta.co.uk/predannack.htm
Hope this is of help,
