General
Creil-Senlis is often visited for a stop-and-go by spotters that are routeing to or from airshows. The based CN235 are often parked outside on the ramp even in the weekends that makes it worthwile to stop by. The northwest and northeast sides are good for viewing; the rest of the base is surrounded by forest.
Layout
Creil air base used to be a fighter base. The remnants of that are still clearly visible. The northeast and southeast shelter areas with dispersals are still mostly intact; although not many shelters remain. The northwest shelter area as well as the cross runway have been largely dismantled. This corner of the field now houses the aero club with their preserved Hurel-Dubois HD34 and fleet of Robins. In the northeast corner there is a small general aviation area. The south side is occupied by the main ramps and hangars of the transport squadron that is based here, south of that many offices and a housing area can be found. Lastly, the southeast shelter area is used by air defence units that are frequently detached here.
Getting There
If you arrive from A1/E19 Autoroute du Nord take exit 8 and make your way around Senlis counter clock-wise on the N330 northbound. The air base will come up on your right, make sure to keep to the right on N330 into Creil.
