Évreux-Fauville Air Base

Évreux-Fauville Air Base 105 is a military airfield base located about two miles east of the town of Évreux, northwest of Paris. The origins of Évreux Air Base go back to the 1920s, when a civil aerodrome was built to accommodate sports flying.

In 2020 a major overhaul began at the base in order to accommodate the first multinational (French & German) military air transport squadron. The development includes three new maintenance hangers, training centres, expansion of the aircraft aprons, new road, and car park infrastructure.

Évreux-Fauville Air Base

Have you ever seen a high mast being hoisted into position by a helicopter? Twelve masts installed in under 45 minutes, quite the achievement!!

CU Phosco Lighting and Ledenco (CU Phosco Lighting's agent in France) worked closely with the design consultants, Sogeti Ingenierie, from the outset and provided lighting designs in full accordance with ICAO Annex 14 and customer requirements. CU Phosco Lighting supplied twelve painted high masts ranging in height from 8m to 22m and 48no. FL810 LED floodlights for the aprons and de-icing areas. The roads and car parks at the base were lit with 68no. P863 and P862 luminaires.

Installation was completed by Eurovia and Citeos from whom we received great support throughout the whole project.

Established in 1923
