DescriptionVergiate Airport is an Italian airfield located in the municipality of Vergiate, in the province of Varese. The airport was built in the mid-1930s on the initiative of the SIAI-Marchetti aviation industry of Sesto Calende, which needed a runway adjacent to its factory to test its aircraft.
During World War II, between June and July 1940 the airport was the operational base of the 23rd Group of the Italian Air Force.
With the passage of SIAI-Marchetti under the control of Agusta (later to become Agusta Westland and finally Leonardo Helicopters), the Vergiates airport maintained its primary function as a test runway; however, the facility is also open to private traffic.
