Royal Air Force Bisterne or more simply RAF Bisterne is a former Royal Air Force Advanced Landing Ground in Hampshire, England. The airfield is located in the hamlet of Bisterne approximately 2 miles (3.2 km) south of Ringwood; about 85 miles (137 km) southwest of London.
Opened in March 1944, Bisterne was a prototype for the type of temporary Advanced Landing Ground type airfield that would be built in France after D-Day, when the need advanced landing fields would become urgent as the Allied forces moved east across France and Germany. It was used by the United States Army Air Force as a fighter airfield. It was closed late in the summer of 1944.
Today the airfield is a mixture of agricultural fields with no recognizable remains.
Bisterne was known as USAAF Station AAF-415 for security reasons by the USAAF during the war, and by which it was referred to instead of location. Its USAAF Station Code was "BS".
In 2004 a small memorial was dedicated by a former P47D pilot on the outskirts of Brixey's Farm yard barn at the end of the metalled bridleway eastwards off the B3347 at Kingston as a lasting memorial to the men and machines who flew from the wartime Bisterne airfield.<Bisterne Estate>
