Situated close to Conningsby, work on Woodhall Spa airfield started in early 1941. Originally the site was wooded and much of the woodland was retained for camouflage purposes. The airfield was built from new with three concrete runways in the standard bomber command pattern with a technical site on the southern side of the airfield. Woodhall Spa finally opened in February 1942 as a 5 group bomber command satellite airfield. 97 Squadron was the first to move in from Conningsby on March 1st 1942 and remained at the airfield flying Lancaster 1 and 3 until April 17th 1943. 97 Squadron was replaced by 619 Squadron that formed there on 18th April 1943 but moved to Conningsby on January 10th 1944.During January 1944 617 Squadron moved to Woodhall and remained at this airfield until the end of the war. The Petwood Hotel in the village was commandeered along with much local accommodation for the air and ground crew. From this airfield 617 Squadron went on to drop the Tallboy and Grandslam bomb and to sink the Tirpitz. The last operation by 617 Squadron was on April 25th 1945 against Berchtesgaden. On June 18th 617 Squadron moved to Waddington. In October of 1945 the airfield was closed to flying and in 1959 part of the airfield was reactivated to enable 112 Squadron to be based there with 16 Bloodhound missiles. They remained on site until 1965 and the site then became an out station for engine testing. Later Police Dog flights, supply squadron hangers storage engine test facilities and the propulsion and rectification section all used the airfield. These were all uses that effectively treated the airfield as a satellite of Conningsby.ConingsbyPlans for an airfield at Coningsby began in 1937 as part of the RAF's expansion scheme plan. However progress in the compulsory purchase of the land was slow and delayed the start of work for two years.[4] The station opened in due course on 4 November 1940 under No. 5 Group, part of RAF Bomber Command.[5][6][7] The first flying unit, No. 106 Squadron with the Handley Page Hampden medium bomber, arrived in February 1941, with active operations taking place the following month when four Hampdens bombed Cologne in Germany.[7] The squadron was joined in April 1941 by No. 97 Squadron equipped with Avro Manchester medium bombers.[6][5] In May 1942, aircraft from Coningsby participated in the 'Thousand Bomber' raid on Cologne.[7]The original grass runways were found to be unsuitable for heavy bomber operations so the station was closed for nearly a year between September 1942 and August 1943, whilst paved runways were laid in preparation for accommodating such aircraft. At the same time further hangars were constructed.[4][5]Three Avro Lancaster B.IIIs of No. 619 Squadron, airborne from RAF Coningsby whilst based there during 1944.The first unit to return was the now famous No. 617 'Dambusters' Squadron. Equipped with Avro Lancaster heavy bombers, the squadron was stationed at Coningsby from August 1943. Due to its specialist nature, the Dambusters carried out limited operations whilst at Coningsby, with the most notable being Operation Garlic, a failed raid targeting the Dortmund-Ems canal in Germany, when five out of the eight Lancasters on the mission failed to return home. As the squadron required more space, its moved to nearby RAF Woodhall Spa in January 1944, swapping places with another Lancaster unit, No. 619 Squadron, which itself later moved on to RAF Dunholme Lodge.[4][8]Further Lancaster squadrons were based at Coningsby during the final months of the war, including No. 61 Squadron from RAF Skellingthorpe,East KirkbyThe Lincolnshire Aviation Heritage Centre?is the only Airfield Museum in the Country recreated to its original design sited on an original WW2 airfield.
