Larisa (Λάρισα) air base is situated east of town west of highway 1/E75. This is a fairly new road and on many maps the airfield is falsely marked to the right of what seems to be the highway but is in fact the old one that runs to the west of the air base!
The base has three parallel stretches of tarmac, but only the southern one is actually in use as runway. The southwest corner has a shelter area were 346 Mira resides. The southeast has a dispersal area used for storage of aircraft but also drop tanks and the like. The north side dispersal area is used by the RF-4E from 348 Mira and the new 337 Mira F-16C/D block 52 are probably also operating from this side.
This is rather straightforward. Take the Larisa exit off highway 1/E75. For spots 1 and 2 proceed on Volou to the city. For the other spots make a right for Melissochori (Μελισσοχώρι).
