Re: Airfields of the Luftwaffe
T.T. -
That could well be the case, but an Einsatzhafen I. Klasse was already pretty well built out and could sustain operations indefinitely for up to a Gruppe of aircraft, including multi-engine aircraft. In a Genst.d.Lw. document dated 1 Dec. 1944 and entitled "Tarnzahlen für Flugplätze", Powunden is listed along with c. 950 other airfields still in use by the Luftwaffe in the Reich. It's code numbers were 1310, 7639 and 9292. It was equipped with perimeter lighting, a probable flare path, a beam approach system and a visual Lorenz system for night landings. Most of the tenant units there from 1943 to January 1945 were NJG units. L. |

Re: Airfields of the Luftwaffe
Not unusual that a Einsatzhafen were upgraded to Fliegerhorst. Grove/Denmark is one example.
