Teuge Airport (Dutch: Vliegveld Teuge) or Teuge International Airport is a small general aviation airfield located between Apeldoorn and Twello, located in the province of Gelderland in the Netherlands. It has two runways, the longest being runway 09/27 with a length of 1,119 meters (3,671 feet). The other runway, 03/21, is grass, with a length of 700 meters (2,297) and limited availability. Next to general aviation, the airfield is also used extensively for glider flying. Though no scheduled international flights take place from the airport, custom services are available upon request, hence it still having the title of international airport.
Several companies at the airport specialise in aerial photography, and it is the home airfield of aerobatics pilot Frank Versteegh, a Red Bull Air Race participant.
[edit] History and future
Runway 09/27 was entirely resurfaced expanded from 700 meters to the current length of 1,119 meters in 2007. There are also plans to add runway and approach lighting, and the airport will get a new control tower and airport office in 2008.
