History of Transport wing 63 and Hohn Airbase
Hohn Airfield is situated in most Northern Germany near to Rendsburg.
Although its construction began already 1938 and was continued during
the war with the help of sowjet prisoners of war, it could not be
finished until the end of the war, when only one of three planned
runways was finished. After the war the RAF took over and demilitarized
the airfield. Moving in from Celle where it has been set to service
1961, GAF Transportwing 63 became 1967 the new owner of the station and
performed air transport duties, first with Nora N2501 Noratlas, from
1968 with C-160 Transall, for the german forces and for NATO.
Because of a restructuring of the German Luftwaffe and introduction
of the much more capable A400M in small number as successor for the
Transall it was decided to close the base and disbandon Air Transport
Wing 63 until 2018. Because of the delayed introduction of A400M this
measure was also delayed until 2021.
