Airport Closure Information

Last updated: Jul 26, 2025
Closure Date

Not applicable; the airport is a fictional entity.

Reason for Closure

Not applicable; the airport never existed as a real-world aviation facility.

Current Status

The coordinates 52.07389, 4.33972 point to the middle of a dense, long-established residential neighborhood in Voorburg, specifically on or near the Prinses Mariannelaan. There is no evidence, current or historical, of an airfield ever existing at this precise location. The area is fully developed with housing, streets, and parks.

Historical Significance

Voorburg Airfield (NL-0070) has no real-world historical significance. The identifier 'NL-0070' is not an official ICAO code, which for the Netherlands begins with 'EH'. This type of code is commonly used as a placeholder for fictional airports in flight simulator software (like Microsoft Flight Simulator or X-Plane) and unofficial online databases that aggregate this data.

There may be a confusion with the nearby, real, and historically significant **Ypenburg Airport (former ICAO: EHYB)**. Ypenburg was located just southeast of Voorburg and was a crucial military and civilian airfield. It played a major role in the Battle for The Hague during the German invasion of the Netherlands in May 1940. After the war, it served both military and civilian purposes before closing permanently in 1992.

Reopening Prospects

None. As the airport is a fictional creation and the physical location is a fully developed residential area, there are no plans or prospects for its 'reopening'.
