abstract
  • Gardermoen Air Station (Norwegian: Gardermoen flystasjon) is located about 50 km north of Oslo, Norway. It is the location for the 135th Airwing and the 335 Squadron of the Royal Norwegian Air Force, which currently operates two of the four recently procured C-130J-30 Super Hercules transport aircraft. In addition, the airfield is designed to handle the complex logistics of the air force, and is one of the most advanced C-130 installations in Europe[citation needed]. Also, Norway's main airport, Oslo Airport, Gardermoen is located near the air station. The Air Force was considering moving its operations at Gardermoen to Rygge Air Station by consent of the Chief of Defence of Norway, General Sigurd Frisvold in the 2003-2004 period; however, this proposition was turned down by the Norwegian Parliament's Defence Committee. Thus, the air station currently remains operational.
