Deggendorf Airfield (EDMW) is a small uncontrolled aerodrome in Lower Bavaria, some 5 km from the town of Deggendorf, operated by the local air sports club. It offers a single asphalt runway and informal radio-advisory service, making it a straightforward general aviation destination for VFR pilots exploring the Bavarian countryside.
Deggendorf Airfield is a small general aviation aerodrome situated close to the town of Deggendorf in Lower Bavaria, Germany. It is run by the air sports club Deggendorf-Plattling and functions as an uncontrolled special airfield, meaning pilots receive take-off and landing recommendations by radio rather than formal air traffic control instructions. For a simulator pilot it offers a quiet, rural Bavarian GA setting with a single asphalt strip and a modest range of facilities.
The airfield lies in uncontrolled airspace near the town of Deggendorf in Lower Bavaria. The nearest airfields are Straubing, around 22 km to the west-northwest, and Landau an der Isar, roughly 22 km to the southwest. As an uncontrolled field, Deggendorf relies on pilot-to-pilot radio procedures rather than an air traffic control unit.
Deggendorf has a single physical runway, 09/27, surfaced in hard standing (asphalt) and measuring 1984 feet in length. There is no ILS or other instrument approach available, so all operations are conducted visually.
Pilots can monitor Langen Information (AFIS) on 120.65 MHz for regional flight information, while local aerodrome traffic uses Deggendorf Radio on 122.03 MHz, which provides take-off and landing recommendations at this uncontrolled field. No published instrument approach or navigation aid serves the airfield.
As an uncontrolled special airfield, Deggendorf does not offer formal air traffic control; instead, pilots receive advisory take-off and landing recommendations over the 122.03 MHz Deggendorf Radio frequency. Arriving and departing traffic should establish contact on this frequency and follow standard see-and-avoid procedures typical of uncontrolled German general aviation airfields.
The airfield is located approximately 5 km from the town of Deggendorf, which together with the Danube valley in which the town sits provides a useful landmark for pilots inbound from the surrounding area.
Deggendorf Airfield received official approval as a special landing field in 1966. Airfield buildings followed from 1971 onwards, and the airfield gained an asphalt runway in 1976. It has long been associated with the air sports club Deggendorf-Plattling, which continues to operate the site.
The airfield remains active under the operation of the air sports club Deggendorf-Plattling. On-site facilities include a fuel station offering avgas and mogas, a restaurant with a beer garden, a tower, and hangar buildings for based aircraft.
