During WWII, the Ministry of Aircraft Production laid a concrete runway and erected the large Bellman Hangar to work on Wellington bombers. The planes were towed down the bypass from their Watford factory to be constructed and repaired at Elstree before taking to the skies, and modifications were continually fitted, including one to trial bounce bombing. Nowadays, Elstree welcomes all general aviation and rotary activity, supported by dedicated ground handlers, round-the- clock refuelling, aircraft maintenance, several active flying schools and hangarage space.
