Straubing Wallmühle Airport (IATA: RBM, ICAO: EDMS) is a minor German regional airport, located about 3 miles north-northwest of Straubing in Bavaria. It is used for general aviation.
History[]
Today's Straubing airfield was founded at the beginning of the 1960s by some flight enthusiasts from Straubing. At first only gliding operations with winch towing took place. In 1972, Straubing-Wallmühle airfield was founded as a limited liability company by the two shareholders, the city of Straubing and the district of Straubing-Bogen. Since that time, the airport has been a public transport company (Verkehrslandeplatz) with a daily duty to operate at binding opening times.
