This was a very small airfield, and a replacement was established at Budaörs,[1] at the south-western limit of Budapest's city boundary.

Planning for the airport started in 1935, and in 1936, design competitions for the terminal and main hangar were held.

[6] By 1950, Malert had been replaced by Maszovlet, 51% owned by the USSR, which operated services to Bratislava, Prague, Bucharest and Venice.

As Budaörs had survived the war relatively intact,[8] it continued its service as the primary international airport until repairs at Ferihegy were completed.

Budaörs is now an active general aviation airport, with many light aircraft and gliders based there.
