Doncaster Sheffield Airport is the former name of Robin Hood Airport which today is an international airport located in Doncaster, South Yorkshire.

During World War I, Doncaster Sheffield Airport was used as a base for the Royal Flying Corps in their attempt to intercept German Zeppelins. During the Cold War the airport became even more important when it then became a base for Vulcan bombers which held nuclear arms.
