Former Parking Area German Fighter Planes
All around the Deelen airfield are open areas at the edge of the Rollbaan. These are former parking areas for German fighter planes. The planes were parked in the edge of the woods with a camouflage net over them. When there was an alarm, the camouflage came off and the fighters taxied to the Deelen runways for takeoff.
