Voss Airport, Bømoen is a general aviation airport located on the closed Bømoen Base in Voss, Norway. The airport consists of an asphalt 1000m runway designated 09/27. The municipal airport is used by the helicopter operator Fonnafly as well as for hanggliding, parachuting and sailplane activities.The airport was built by the Norwegian Army in 1935. It was taken over by the Luftwaffe during World War II, resulting in a new and longer runway being built. Since 1958 there has been civilian aviation at the airport. The annual Extreme Sport Festival has used the airport since 1998.HistoryBømoen Base was established by the Norwegian Army in 1899, replacing older bases in Vik and Lærdal. The Bergen Line was being constructed and by placing a base on the railway it would be possible to have quick access to Eastern Norway. This was considered important at the time because the main threat of war at the time was with Sweden. The airport was established in 1935, when the Norwegian Army Air Service built a small airfield, aligned southwest–northeast.
