Bristol (Whitchurch) Airport, also known as Whitchurch Airport, was a municipal airport in Bristol, England, three miles (5 km) south of the city centre, from 1930 to 1957. It was the main airport for Bristol and the surrounding area. During World War II, it was one of the few civil airports in Europe that remained operational, enabling air connections to Lisbon and Shannon and onwards to the United States. The airport closed in 1957, with services transferred to the former RAF Lulsgate Bottom. The former airfield is now occupied by a sports centre, trading estates and retail parks. The South Bristol Community Hospital opened on the site in 2012. (en) El Aeropuerto de Bristol (Whitchurch), también conocido como Aeropuerto de Whitchurch, fue un aeródromo situado en el municipio de Bristol, Inglaterra, a unas tres millas (5 km) al sur del centro de la ciudad. Operativo desde 1930 hasta 1957, era el principal aeropuerto de Bristol y sus alrededores. Durante la Segunda Guerra Mundial, fue uno de los pocos aeropuertos civiles de Europa que permaneció operativo, lo que permitió que mantuviera conexiones aéreas primero con Lisboa y Shannon, y más adelante con los Estados Unidos. El aeropuerto cerró en 1957 y los servicios se transfirieron a la antigua base de la RAF en Lulsgate Bottom, origen del actual Aeropuerto Internacional de Brístol. El antiguo aeródromo ahora está ocupado por un centro deportivo, y por naves y parques comerciales. El , inaugurado en 2012, está situado en terrenos anteriormente ocupados por el Aeropuerto de Whitchurch. (es) |
