Châteaudun air base formed in 1951 is the largest aircraft storage
centre in Europe. It is essentially a Gallic version of AMARG (Aerospace
Maintenance and Regeneration Group), but unlike Davis Monthan AFB in the
dry Arizona desert heat, the Armée de l'air (AdA) has to store its
reserve fleet of aircraft inside climate controlled hangars awaiting a
time when they are either returned to service or otherwise disposed of
from the inventory. Anyone got any stories or some interesting
information to tell about this place, please share.

I wonder if any of those Epsilons are for sale to civilians. A friend
here has one -- it is a sweet-flying bird.
