EDRE Mendig

Mendig Air Base (German: "Heeresflugplatz Mendig") is a former military air base located southeast of the city of Mendig, Rhineland-Palatinate, Germany.

It was home of German Army Medium Transport Helicopter Regiment 35, equipped with CH-53D helicopters. The regiment was disbanded in 2004. The air base was closed on 31 December 2007 with the last personnel leaving the base on 30 June 2008.

After the military drew out in 2008, the airfield was converted to civilian use, under the ICAO code EDRE. It is home to an aeroclub Sportfluggruppe Mendig e.V., and serves as the setting for several automobile-related television and film recordings, examples are DSF-Motor, Kabel 1 - Abenteuer Auto, RTL2 - Grip, VOX Automobil or SWR Rasthaus.

The field's former MBB Bo105 hangars at the north-west side now host aircraft builder Roland Aircraft.

From 2015 to 2017 the airfield was also the new home of the rock festival Rock am Ring until it returned to the Nürburgring again.
