As an attempt to relieve the main area airport EDDV, just a few miles northwest off here, the Hannover-Eilenriede Airfield was founded. Its main perk is the proximity to a main hospital and medical education hub, the MHH, allowing for rapid shipment of medicine and transportation of patients. It is nestled into the east of Hannover, wedged between the city forest and parks, as well as residential areas, making it necessary for the area to be used most efficiently. As of now it still is work in progress, with the next objective being to give lighting to runway 13-31, and to place some first buildings and facilities.
