German WW1 airfield near Flesquieres?

Was there ever a German WW1 aerodrome near Flesquieres, in the triangle limits of Marcoing-Villers_Plouich-Ribecourt please?

Egbert,

Perhaps you (also) try our colleague website theaerodrome.com?

Type Flesquieres in Search there and you get several references to a/the aerodrome with that place name.

It appears that FFA 22 was stationed there in 1916.

Regards,

Leendert

Yes I am a member there as well. No luck with location of Flesquieres Flugplatz/aerodrome although obviously FFA22, FFA24 and FFA42 were stationed there with some aircraft. Gruppe Laffert is also mentioned........
This aerodrome must have been pretty well concealed- up to today ......
