RAF Holme-on-Spalding Moor
RAF Holme-on-Spalding Moor, or more simply RAF Holme is a former Royal Air Force station located in Holme-on-Spalding-Moor, East Riding of Yorkshire, England.
The site was built during the Second World War, it was used during the war by the Royal Air Force (RAF) as a bomber station, and after the war as a transport airfield and bomb store before being "mothballed". In the 1950s, the RAF used the station as a training camp before it was transferred to the United States Air Force (USAF) as a reserve station during the Cold War. After USAF use, it became a testing airfield for Blackburn Aircraft and its successor British Aerospace until 1983, when the airfield was closed. Many of the airfield buildings survive as an industrial estate, but most of the runways have been demolished.
