Location


The airdrome lies within the Main triangle, about 3.5 km north-west of the historic city centre of Würzburg. It is located at the land-parcel Guckelesberg at a height of 301m above NN. In the east there are the neighbourhoods Unterdürrbach and Oberdürrbach. 2 km to the west flows the Main river.[1]


History


In 1954 the US Army installed an airdrome on the Schenkenfeld as replacement for the old airdrome at Galgenberg. In 1961 the city of Würzburg took over the airdrome Schenkenfeld. In turn the US Army constructed a missile site on the Schenkenfeld. In 1965 a civil co-use of the airdrome was permitted. Later the Flugsport-Club Würzburg e.V. took over the operation.

The Airdrome is a commercial airfield for aircraft of all sorts up to 2000 kg maximum takeoff weight and helicopters until 5700 kg. In the time from March to October operations continue from 8:00 AM to 5:30 PM. In winter operation is allowed in the maximum of half an hour before sunrise and after sunset.
