Originally designated as Great Saling when designed and under construction, the base was renamed as "Andrews Field" in honor of United States Army Air Forces (USAAF) General Frank M. Andrews, who was killed in an airplane crash in Iceland in May 1943.〔 Andrews Field was primarily the home of the USAAF Ninth Air Force 322d Bombardment Group during the Second World War, which flew the Martin B-26 Marauder medium bomber. After being transferred to the Air Ministry in late 1944, it was used briefly by RAF Fighter Command for Gloster Meteor jet fighter testing before being finally closed in late 1945.〔 Today the remains of the airfield are located on private property being used as agricultural fields, with a small portion used by the Andrewsfield Flying Club. ==History== Andrews Field was the first of fourteen "Type A" airfields built by the United States Army Air Fores in the United Kingdom during the Second World War. Originally designated as "Great Sailing", the facility was built by the United States Army 819th Engineer Battalion (Aviation), which began work on the field during July 1942.〔pp: 22-25, the Essex Bomber Airfields, Freeman, Roger A. (1994) UK Airfields of the Ninth: Then and Now (After the Battle), ISBN 0900913800〕 Andrews Field had three runways, a main of 1,830m aligned 09/27 and two crosswind secondary runways of 1,280m aligned 02/20 and 15/33. It had an enclosing perimeter track that had three separate dispersal areas totaling 50 loop type hardstands and one "frying pan" type. Barracks facilities for about 3,000 personnel were constructed along with a technical site that had two T-2 type hangars for aircraft maintenance.〔 Main construction was supposed to be completed in early January 1943, and it continued until March. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「RAF Andrews Field」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク 翻訳と辞書 : 翻訳のためのインターネットリソース Copyright(C) kotoba.ne.jp 1997-2016.
