## Description

Operated by the US Army until 2012, Bamberg-Breitenau (ICAO: EDQA) is now a special-use airfield about 3 km northeast of Bamberg in Upper Franconia, run by Stadtwerke Bamberg together with the Aero-Club Bamberg. It serves sport, glider and business aircraft up to 10 t maximum take-off weight, with instrument-flight (IFR) capability added in a 2019–2021 upgrade. The field handles no air cargo; the nearest cargo alternative is Nuremberg (NUE), around 60 km away via the A73 motorway.
