History
Initially created as an aviation school in 1930, the airfield was used as a US Army center in 1945. It was sold to the Belgian state in 1946 and served as a backup airport for the city of Ostend, in case Melsbroek or Brussels Airport were to be unusable.[citation needed] It has a long tradition in glider flying.
