Lasnamäe Airfield (Estonian: Lasnamäe lennuväli) was an airfield in Tallinn, Estonia. It was located 5 km (3.1 mi) east of the city centre on the hill of Lasnamäe. Nowadays its former runway and taxiways are covered by apartment buildings and a street network. The newer Tallinn Airport is also located in Lasnamäe but 4.5 km (2.8 mi) south-southwest.
