Location
Mönchengladbach, Germany
Mönchengladbach Airport (IATA: MGL, ICAO: EDLN) is a small regional airport located in Mönchengladbach, in the state of North Rhine-Westphalia, Germany. It primarily serves general aviation, charter flights, and business aviation, situated close to the Dutch border in a densely populated region. The airport operates on a modest scale compared to nearby major hubs such as Düsseldorf International Airport, which is located roughly 25 kilometres to the east.

The facility also hosts flight training activities and light aircraft operations, making it an important asset for general aviation in the Lower Rhine region.
