History

Turnhouse Aerodrome was the most northerly British air defence base in World War I. The small base opened in 1915 and it was used to house the 603 (City of Edinburgh) Squadron, which consisted of DH 9As, Westland Wapitis, Hawker Harts, and Hawker Hind light bombers. All the aircraft used a grass air strip. “The Great War ” redirects here. ... No. ... Three DH.9A in formation. ... The Westland Wapiti was a British general purpose military single engined biplane of the 1920s built by Westland Aircraft Works to a specification for a replacement of the DH9a in RAF service. ... The Hawker Hart was a two-seater biplane light-bomber of the Royal Air Force (RAF), which had a prominent role during the RAFs inter-war period. ... The Hawker Hind was an Royal Air Force light-bomber of the inter-war years. ...

In 1918 the Royal Air Force was formed and the airfield was named RAF Turnhouse and ownership transferred to the Ministry of Defence. The Ministry of Defence (MOD) is the United Kingdom government department responsible for implementation of government defence policy and is the headquarters of the British Armed Forces. ...

When World War II broke out, fighter command took control over the airfield and a runway of 3,900ft was paved to handle the Vickers Supermarine Spitfire.

The Supermarine Spitfire was a British single-seat fighter, which was used by the Royal Air Force and many other Allied countries during the Second World War, and into the 1950s. ...

When the war ended the airfield still remained under military control, but by the late 1940s the first commercial services were launched. In 1947, British European Airways started a service between Edinburgh and London using Vickers Vikings followed by the Viscount and Vanguard series.

View of the control tower from the terminal building

In 1952 the runway was extended to 6000ft to handle the Vampire FB5s. In 1956 a new passenger terminal was built to offer improved commercial service and five years later it was extended. The Ministry of Defence transferred ownership to the Ministry of Aviation in 1960 to offer improved commercial service to the airport. In 1971 the British Airports Authority took over the airport and immediately started to expand it by building a new runway and terminal.

BAA plc is the owner and operator of seven major United Kingdom airports and operator of several airports worldwide, making the company one of the largest transport companies in the world. ...

Although the original runway 13/31 (which is now 12/30) served the airport well, its alignment had the disadvantage of suffering from severe crosswinds, so movements were transferred to a new runway (07/25, which is has since become 06/24). This runway, completed in 1977 is 8399ft in length, and was able to take all modern airliners. A new terminal was built alongside the runway to cater for the additional traffic. The old terminal and hangars were converted into a cargo centre.

The only international services from Edinburgh during the 1980s were to Amsterdam and Dublin, but in the following years links were opened to destinations in France and Germany. By the end of the decade BAA had been privatised and funds were used to extend the current terminal building and create parking aprons. For other uses, see Amsterdam (disambiguation). ...

Future plans

There are plans to expand Edinburgh airport by adding a further runway, although this is unlikely to be required within the next 20 years. BAA has made provision in its Master Plan for the airport for an extension to the current runway 06/24, which would allow larger aircraft to serve longer haul destinations.

Edinburgh Airport is easily reached by the M9 and M90 motorways and is close to the Fife Circle and Edinburgh-Glasgow railway lines. In 2003 the Scottish Executive announced plans to build the Edinburgh Airport Rail Link, however, the plans were cancelled by the new Scottish National Party administration in July 2007 following the elections in May. The proposed Edinburgh tram network is expected to connect to Edinburgh Airport when complete in 2011 Currently express bus services link the airport to Edinburgh City Centre by airlink 100,[1] to Inverkeithing railway station and Ferrytoll Park and Ride in Fife by service 747,[2] to Edinburgh Park, Sighthill, Fountainbridge, Holyrood and Leith by service 35[3] and to Livingston by service 555/777.[4][5] The M9 motorway is also the name of roads in Russia (see Baltic Highway) and Ireland (see N9 road). ...

An extension to the terminal opened in September 2006. This added six gates on a new pier to the North-East of the earlier building. In the long term BAA projects that by 2030 Edinburgh Airport will be Scotland's busiest, handling 26 million passengers per year.

In July 2007 BAA announced it would be expanding the current departures hall to add extra waiting areas, shops and restaurants for the increase in passengers. Also it would extend the south east pier to add three more gates to increase capacity, but it is rumoured that these will be for large aircraft. BAA also plans to resurface the runway, all of these new constructions are part of BAAs £1 billion investment in the airport to cater for the expected trebling of passenger numbers in the next 20 years.

Accidents

On 27 February 2001, a Loganair Shorts 360 (G-BNMT) operating a Royal Mail flight to Belfast, crashed into the Firth of Forth shortly after taking off from Edinburgh at 1730 GMT. Both crew members were killed, but there were no passengers on board. A fatal accident inquiry later blamed a build up of slush in the aircraft's engines for the crash.
