Leeuwarden Air Base
Leeuwarden Air Base ((オランダ語:Vliegbasis Leeuwarden)) is a military airbase used by the Royal Netherlands Air Force (RNLAF) - (オランダ語:Koninklijke Luchtmacht) (''KLu''), . The airbase is one of the two F-16 Fighting Falcon bases of the RNLAF. The airbase lies northwest of the capital of Friesland, Leeuwarden.
Leeuwarden Air Base is also one of the three military airbases (together with Gilze-Rijen Air Base and Volkel Air Base) that organise the twice-in-three-years Luchtmachtdagen ('Air Force Days') of the Royal Netherlands Air Force, consisting of air shows and static exhibits. In 2006 and 2008 Leeuwarden Air Base hosted these public demonstration days.
==History==
The airport of Leeuwarden was built in 1938, and originally was used as an airport between Schiphol and Eelde. Initially the airport was used only infrequently, but that changed after the Germans had invaded the Low Countries in 1940. The Germans used the airport as a base for their fighter aircraft (including the Messerschmitt Bf 109) and bombers. From the airbase the Germans could reach Great Britain. During World War II, and especially on the 16th and 17th of September, 1944, the airbase was heavily bombed by the British.
After the liberation of the Netherlands the airbase was repaired, and during the first post-war years it was used as a civil airport, and the KLM ran a commercial line to Schiphol. In 1949, Leeuwarden became a dedicated military airbase.
