Der frühere Fliegerhorst Langendiebach war ein Militärflugplatz westlich von Langendiebach in Hessen, der von 1939 bis 2007 in Betrieb war. Die spätere Bezeichnung bei den US-Streitkräften war Hanau AAF (US Army Airfield).[1] Der ehemalige Flugplatz liegt westlich Langendiebachs. Ein Teil des Geländes gehört zur Gemarkung der nordwestlich gelegenen Stadt Bruchköbel. Im Südosten liegt der Nachbarort Rückingen, nach Süden und Westen hin schließen ausgedehnte Wälder an. Nach Norden grenzt das Gelände an landwirtschaftlich genutztes Gebiet. Die größte Ausdehnung besteht in Nord-Süd-Richtung mit zwei Kilometern.
Fliegerhorst Langendiebach / Erlensee
Der Standort Langendiebach wurde eher zufällig gewählt; durch eine Notlandung in den dortigen Wiesen wurde man 1936 auf das Gebiet aufmerksam. 1937 begannen die Bauarbeiten, 1939 konnte der Fliegerhorst eröffnet werden. Er war Heimathorst der I. Gruppe des Kampfgeschwaders 55. Nach dem Beginn des Zweiten Weltkriegs diente der Fliegerhorst zur Schulung neuer Flugzeugführer für Lastensegler. Als die Front 1944 näher rückte, blieb der Fliegerhorst lange unerkannt, erst eine Erweiterung des Rollfeldes ließ die Tarnung auffliegen und der Standort wurde Ende 1944 bombardiert. Ju 88 des Nachtjagdgeschwaders 4 lagen hier seit Mitte 1944. Der Fliegerhorst war dadurch völlig zerstört, als ihn die Amerikaner am 29. März 1945 eroberten.
Hanau Army Airfield
Nach dem Krieg wurde Airfield Y-91, so die alliierte Bezeichnung bei Kriegsende, von den Amerikanern wieder aufgebaut, denn als Teil des Fulda Gap hatte er eine große strategische Bedeutung. So wurden dort Flugabwehrstellungen und Waffenlager aufgebaut. John F. Kennedy besuchte den Flugplatz am 25. Juni 1963. In Hanau Airfield waren 1991 über 6.400 Soldaten mit mehreren Helikopterstaffeln stationiert. Neben einigen UH-1 und UH-60 Transporthubschraubern waren die Haupteinsatzmuster AH-64 Kampfhubschrauber und OH-58 Beobachtungshubschrauber.
Mit dem Abzug der amerikanischen Truppen aus Deutschland wurde der Flugplatz 2007 aufgegeben. Das Gelände liegt seither brach.
Großbrand am 30. Juli 2015
Am Nachmittag des 30. Juli 2015 brach im früheren Offiziersclub/Post/Uhrenturmgebäude ein Dachstuhlbrand aus, der rasch auf das gesamte Gebäude übergriff. Trotz des Einsatzes von Feuerwehren aus dem gesamten Main-Kinzig-Kreis, aus Frankfurt sowie von Wasserwerfern der Polizei konnte nicht verhindert werden, dass das gesamte denkmalgeschützte Gebäude ausbrannte.

I worked n lived in a avionics shop opposite the flight line in 1970. The building is still there happy to see. However the lovely old hangars are gone and one of these hangars was the one I saw Bob Hope's Christmas show in. I see the ramp area not is a vary new and modern building with lots of loading docks around it If I remember correctly. AnyWay, I really liked my time at Fligerhorst, especially being in that old Lufwaffa base.

Sir I was stationed there from 1970 thru 1973 in the 122nd Avn co. as 17L20 or T O. We probably crossed paths at one time or another. I remember seeing Bob Hope. A shame the airfield is now gone by the wayside. Lots of stories I could tell.

Since I made the above post I learned some place that an air craft caryting Hitler needed to divert to Fligerhorst once for some reason durring the war. I also learned that the grass runway area was able to be flooded and and cows added around the parimiter made to look like a lake and dairy farm in a relative short period of time when needed. Also when I was there in 70-71 I was also told that I was the only US Army company mail clerk that fetched the mail daily on a motorcycle. Perhaps people thar were there during that time will remember seeing a. GI riding blue BSA Lightning? That was me......

I have buy this building and i was excited about the history of this building. This small Hall is completly renovated by me. I found in it a planograph which is named "bulk storage area". I will save this memories on this historical Hall. They have build it in early 1960's. The original Plan was to demolish the building, but for me is to historical to kill this memories. Maybe someone can remeber or know someone Who was there? I was verry thankful about informations. Sorry for my bad english i dont use it everey Day :(Thank you!
