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.
