French Navy spottting trip brittany

[Shannon spotter]

Hi lads/lasses,

I was planning a spotting trip to Brittany early next year.
I want to visit:

Lorient (E-2, Atlantique, EMB 121, Falcon 10+50, )
Lanveoc (Lynx, SA-321, NH-90, All-3)
Landivisiau (Super Etendard, Rafale)

What are the spotting conditions around these bases and best days to visit?

Kind regards,
Dirk.

Thanks mate,

pity about Lorient, is there any way to park the car and walk to the fence through the trees?

Thanks,
Dirk.

Hi,

All I know is you can see a little part of the ramp if you drive to the civil terminal.
Maybe you can park the car close and walk to the fence there.

Good luck!

Best regards, Rob.

I looked at all the maps on the site before i posed the question, i was just wondering what peoples experience was when spotting at these fields, the maps are good for locations and short descriptions but don't beat real life stories.

Thanks anyway.

Dirk.
