History※">edit]
In 1915 the Österreichische Flugzeugfabrik (ÖFFAG) opened Wiener Neustadt Airport as their factory airfield. During World War II, the airfield was used for military purposes. The airfield was closed until 1972 when the Sport Flieger Club Austria (SFCA) rented the airfield——to continue its operations. The SFCA overhauled and rebuilt the airport. The airport had four grass runways until the SFCA decided to build an asphalt runway, which is still un use today. One year later Diamond Aircraft, Austria's most famous aircraft factory, located their headquarters and factories at Wiener Neustadt Airport. In 1998 Diamond Aircraft Industries bought 51% of the airfield and the Diamond SFCA Ges.m.b.H. was created to manage all operations of the airport. Wiener Neustadt East Airport is one of the oldest airports in Europe.
