Cazaux Air Base near Bordeaux in France will hold a "Meeting de l'Air" to celebrate the 100 years of the airbase and the 80 years of the Armée de l'Air (French Air Force) on june 21st and 22nd 2014.
The program is not known yet nor how the organization will take place. It is however expected to be a big airshow and work has already begun to find funds and for the practical means.
Hi Guy's
I posted a few photo's of the last French airforce show of 2013 Cognac at the following link :- http://mikesbirdsinfocus.blogspot.fr and now we look forward to Cazaux 2014 100 years should be good!
Cette grande manifestation aérienne sera accessible sur invitation le samedi 21 juin et retransmise sur France 2 ce jour-là.
Elle sera ouverte au public le dimanche 22 juin 2014.
Google Translate:
This large air show will be available on Saturday, June 21 invitation and broadcast on France 2 that day.
It will be open to the public Sunday, June 22, 2014.
I guess it's up to the "warbirds" and the "locally based boys" (i.e. Singaporeans and French CEV etc) to somehow make this event into something worth travelling to.

As I was very used to the Singapore A-4's on Cazaux the past many years, I noticed there is not a single one in your log. I am not all that up-to-date anymore but found out they are replaced by the M-346.
Does anybody know what has happened with the A-4's on Cazaux? Have they returned to Singapore?,Or are they scattered over europe in museums?
