Coburg-Brandensteinsebene Airfield (EDQC) is a small airfield serving the town of Coburg in Bavaria, Germany. It is the home base of the Aeroclub Coburg and supports light aircraft and glider operations from a site perched on elevated ground outside the town, giving it a distinctive character among the region's smaller fields.
The airfield lies near Coburg in Bavaria, within the area served by Langen Information and, at higher levels, Nuernberg Radar. It sits at an elevation of 1467 feet, making it one of the higher-set aerodromes in the area, and pilots transiting the region should expect to work with the relevant flight information and radar services listed below.
The airfield has two physical runways aligned 12/30. One is a grass strip, 2290 feet long, marked 12R/30L. The other is a hard-surfaced runway, 2067 feet long, equipped with lighting, marked 12/30. There is no ILS at the field.
