Beskrivelse
Royal Air Force Catfoss, or more simply RAF Catfoss, is a former Royal Air Force station during the Second World War. It was located 4 miles (6.4 km) west of Hornsea, East Riding of Yorkshire, England and 8 miles (13 km) north-east of Leconfield, East Riding of Yorkshire, with the nearest village being Brandesburton.
The airfield was opened in 1932 for an Armament Training Camp. A small number of fighters were posted there, at the start of the Second World War, before the airfield was rebuilt as a bomber station. It initially closed in November 1945, but re-opened in 1959 as a site for the PGM-17 Thor ballistic missile. It closed again in 1963.
