From the early days of World War I the airfield at Crail served as the base for a variety of different branches of the armed forces, most notably as the Flet Air Arm airfield, HMS Jackdaw, during World War II. Because of the significance of the site, the remaining buildings now enjoy Scheduled Status under the auspices of Historic Scotland.
