Llanbedr Airport , formerly RAF Llanbedr (ICAO: EGOD), is an operational general aviation airport located in the Snowdonia National Park near the village of Llanbedr, Gwynedd, northwest Wales. ==History== It opened in 1941 as part of RAF Fighter Command's 12 Group.〔Willis S & B R Holliss (1987) ''Military Airfields in the British Isles 1939-1945 (Omnibus Edition)'', Woolnough Bookbinding Ltd, Northants, 283 pp, ISBN 0-907700-12-8〕 During its life, the base has been known as: * RAF Llanbedr until 1957 * RAE Llanbedr until 1992 * T&EE Llanbedr (Test & Evaluation Establishment) until 1995. * DTEO Llanbedr (Defence Test & Evaluation Organisation) until 1997 * DERA Llanbedr until 2001, when most of DERA became QinetiQ. The site was (from Spring 1942) an operational base for Towed Target (and in 1943, became the home of the RAF's No. 12 Fighter Gunnery School), and later, Target Drone services to the UK Armed Forces. Target provision services were typically to the Cardigan Bay Ranges (UK Danger Area EGD201, under the control of Aberporth) but Llanbedr targets also worked other UK ranges, including the Royal Artillery range off the Hebrides and occasionally overseas. 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「Llanbedr Airport」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
