Herzliya Airfield is one of the few airfields in Israel used as a training ground for pilots.

History:

Herzliya Airfield was established during the War of Independence, as a military airstrip for a combat flying squadron. After the war it became an agricultural landing field, where agricultural flying activity and maintenance in Israel were concentrated.

Over the years, the airfield became an Israeli center for training pilots and a range of very diverse activities in the area of private flight. Private aircraft arrived at the airfield, flying schools were set up, parking aprons were paved, the landing/ takeoff strip was extended and the control tower and fire station were constructed, in line with the standards.

In May 1978, the airfield was transferred from the responsibility of the Civil Aviation Administration to the Israel Airports Authority.

Today users can enjoy a wide range of activity at the airfield, including: courses on flying and flight simulators, theoretical studies, private flights at weekends, hire of airplanes and helicopters for pleasure flights, aerial photography and air taxi services.
