I think Lelystad is the only city in the Netherlands named after a person (besides some Kings and Queens)
Mr Lely was the engineer who engineered the Afsluitdijk and made the plans for the various big polders.
The photo of the Helicopter was from somewhere on the ring dyke around Flevoland.
Currently Lelystad Airport is being extended to form a relief airport for Schiphol (charter flights without onward connections)
The field is -12ft AMSL
