Overview

Fritzlar is a Bundeswehr base in Fritzlar. Originally a Luftwaffe base during World War II, after the end of the war it was first under American and then under French control before being returned to the German military in 1956. It primarily hosts helicopters from Transporthubschrauberregiment 10, Transporthubschrauberregiment 30, and Kampfhubschrauberregiment 36, but its 1043m hard surface runway can also support smaller fixed wing aircraft. Additionally, an army ambulance regiment is stationed at the airport which attracts medevac and other medical flights as well.

As Fritzlar is a military airport, charts can't be found in the normal AIP. They are accessible through the MIL AIP, GEMIL FLIP VAD, and CENOR FLIP in the milais.

Fritzlar is an unrestricted airport. The Ground position can be staffed by all controllers with an S1 rating or higher. The Tower position can be staffed by all controllers with an S2 rating or higher. The radar position can be staffed by all controllers with an S3 rating or higher. However, controllers should closely familiarize themselves with military procedures before staffing the airport.
