1.The original

The first gliding experiments in Kufstein were made at the beginning of the 30s. Pilots of that time have taken the first steps to aviation in Kufstein with pioneering spirit and daring.

From the circle of domestic aviation pioneers soon excelled the young engineer Alois Hasenknopf, he tracked down the secrets of the updraft in Kufstein and environment. Initial test flights, which were no more than "Hupfer" often were started in Lower village on the slopes of the so-called "Gratlwirts-Glifts". This area should be important for the development of gliding in Kufstein because 1938 there a Soaring practice site of the former Nazi Air Corps was established, which was based primarily on the experiences of Ing. Hasenknopf. The sky over Kufstein was discovered and used during the war as a training center. However, the dreary years after the war ended in 1945 destroyed the dream of gliding.

But once again, it was Ing Hasenknopf, which reached its determination that in Kufstein the sport of soaring could be exercised again - at the beginning under the control of the French occupation forces. The airfield was at that time under the "Schanzer Wänden" at the "Hoader Bauer" between Ebbs and Kufstein.
1950 founded Ing. Alois Hasenknopf as chairman officially the Kufsteiner gliding club. By 1970, the club and the operations on the Kufsteiner "Sparchner Feldern"  developed magnificently. However, the constant building of the peri-urban area was continued, use as a glider airfield was no longer possible and flight operations had to be stopped.

The years of flying hiking could be finished in 1975, when the approval for the new airfield Kufstein-Langkampfen was granted. The geographical location of the new airport in the municipality Unterlangkampfen does not allow a wind drag, so that it had to be changed to aerotow.

Since then at our airfield, motor-glider flight, glider towing and the operation of VLA aircraft takes place instead.
