The airfield served as the main airport in Finland for some time after the Second World War when Helsinki-Malmi Airport was used by the Allied Commission. Aero OY operated several commuter routes by DC-2. DC-3s never flew routes from Hyvinkää as Aero moved back to Malmi before the pilots were fully trained, but DC-3 training flights were conducted from the airfield.
