RAF Elgin
Royal Air Force Elgin or more simply RAF Elgin also known as Bogs of Mayne is a former Royal Air Force satellite station located approximately 1.5 kilometres south west of Elgin in Moray, Scotland. It opened in 1940 as a satellite airfield of RAF Lossiemouth and was used throughout the Second World War, predominantly by bomber aircraft of No. 20 Operational Training Unit. Towards the end of the war it was used by No. 46 Maintenance Unit, before it closed in 1947. The site was returned to agricultural use, although several airfield buildings and a memorial remain.
