About Skå-Edeby Airfield

Skå-Edeby Airfield

Skå-Edeby Flygfält är ett flygfält på Färingsö i Ekerö kommun. Flygfältet invigdes 1942. Under 1950-talet utreddes frågan om Skå-Edeby skulle bli Stockholms nya storflygplats. Området förvärvades 1940 av Stockholms stad, och stod ursprungligen under Stockholms stads Flyghamnsstyrelses regi. Staden sålde marken 2009 till Ekerö kommun.
