The 2521 m. runway of Erding airbase seen from above. Formerly a Luftwaffe training field prior to and during World War II, it was taken over by the USAF from 1945-1957, after which it was returned to the Luftwaffe. Fliegerhorst Erding ceased to be a front line fighter airbase and became home in 2002 to the 1st Air Force Maintenance Regiment (LwInsthRgt 1) providing technical and logistical support.
