Villacoublay - Velizy (BA107) is one of the bases from where the French Air Force VIP fleet operates. The airbase is situated south of the A86/Périphérique I'll-de-France. Several aircraft that were formerly used by ETEC00.065 or other local units are preserved on base. Unfortunately, most of them are not visible from outside.
From outside it is hard to see any aircraft on base because most of the airbase is surrounded by an earth wall. In the past, the top floor of a car park of the local Carrefour, just north of the N86, offered some views but during a recent visit this car park was closed. Only from the east side, near the Citroen car factory it is possible to see the runway and part of the airbase itself.
To get to Villacoublay, follow the A86/Périphérique I'll-de-France. When coming from the west, take exit 31, go left and following road D53. The airfield will be at your left after 1 km. When coming from the east, take exit 30 into road N118 in southern direction and leave this road at the first exit, number 4. The airfield will be at your right and you will be near spot 2 of the map.
At spot 1, this MS760 is preserved in a special c/s. (Melchior Timmers)
