Opened during 1942 it was quickly turned over to the
8th air force with medium bombers moving in. By November these aircraft
had moved on to be replaced by heavy bomber units and ops continued up
until the end on the war. By August 1945 the airfield was handed over to
the Fleet Air Arm and named HMS Europa, however this only lasted until
1946 when it was returned to RAF control. The RAF had left by 1955 and
Bungay was sold off by 1962.
