Background
The airport is, since the closure of Barkarby Airport, the only minor airport in Stockholm County with an asphalted runway (besides the major airports of Bromma and Arlanda).[1] In 2009, the municipal government of Stockholm County started looking after new alternatives for general aviation in Stockholm County. The municipal government sought after having a northern and southern alternative, where Mellingeholm was appointed as the northern one.
Sjöfartsverket (maritime department) uses Mellingeholm airport as a base for one of their seven SAR helicopters. Mellingeholm is since 2017 also a base for the Stockholm ambulance helicopter services. The airstrip is also home to a flight club and two flight schools. Around 15 aircraft are based at the airport, as well as Roslagens Helikopterflyg and the helicopter flight school Proflight Nordic.[2][3]
