Noertrange airfield (french: Aèodrome de Noertange, ICAO: ELNT) is a small general aviation airfield near Wiltz in the north of Luxemburg.
In 1928 the first aircraft, the Prince Jean O-BADA of the young pilot Lou Hemmer, landed in Wiltz but on the southern elevation of the city. During World War II the airfield was not in use.
On 29 May 1956 the first pilot landed with his Piper (LX-AIC) on the new strip located at Noertrange.
