Boleraz Airport LZTR and FPS Library pack

Stefan Banic airport. Airport of two aeroclubs.

The airport near the village of Boleráz near Trnava is named after the inventor of the parachute Štefan Banič. Currently, the airport is shared by two aero clubs. Aeroclub Trnava and Aeroclub Bratislava.

The history of Aeroklub Trnava dates back to the period before World War 1.
The Boleráz airport as we know it today began to be built
In May 1975, the activity of the aero club was finally moved to the newly built facilities at the airport Boleráz - Klčovany. The location of the airport is very convenient for all air sports. The airport was built as a military reserve strip for ČSĽA aircraft. Mig15s, which were in service with ČSLA at that time, actually landed and took off at this airport.
In the 1970s and 1980s, there was a rapid development of all aviation activities.

Currently, Aeroklub Trnava unites members in the engine department, which uses sports aircraft of the Zlín Z 226MS and Z526 AFS-V types. And in the glider department, which uses G103 Twin Astir gliders, L 23, VSO 10, Centair 201A PEGAS and L 13 SE Vivat motor glider.

Aeroklub Bratislava was founded in 1928 under the name Slovenský Aeroklub M.R. Štefánika and became part of the Aeroclub of the Czechoslovak Republic. Vajnory near Bratislava became his home. Promotional flights and performances at air days were performed by military pilots of the Vajnor crew, who at the same time performed the functions of flying instructors in the aero club.
Between 1934 and 1935, the aero club built two hangars on the hillside of Dúbravka near Bratislava and began intensively organizing gliding training.

In the period before the Second World War, interest in building aviation and flight training increased. With great effort, the instructors also trained pilots for the aviation school in Prostejov. The well-organized promotion generated great interest in flight training in Bratislava.
However, with the outbreak of the Second World War, the activity of the aero club practically stopped. During the Second World War, many members of the aeroclub joined the anti-fascist resistance as participants of the SNP, the paratrooper brigade as well as in the Battle of Great Britain. Only after the war did life return to the aero club. A group of glider pilots, with the approval of the superior authorities, moved the captured gliders from Austria and resumed gliding training on the hillsides of Dúbravka.
In 1946, a parachuting department with a Douglas DC3 aircraft was established in Bratislava.
In 1954 the aero club was assigned new modern motorized and non-motorized airplanes of domestic production, and paratroopers were equipped with new parachutes. 
As time went on, the airport in Vajnory became inadequate due to the close proximity of the M.R.Stefánik Intl. airport and its growing air traffic. 
The Aeroclub decided to move, and since 2007, Štefan Banič Airport near Trnava has become its new home.
Currently, the aero club operates both motorized and non-motorized aircrafts. Its members regularly participate in top sailing competitions at national and world level.
