Default Largest Storage Facility In Europe- Châteaudun

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.
