Main gate: (2285) SA318C preserved (1582) SE3160 preserved (1270)/DAC SA341F preserved The SE3160 also used to be coded, but over time this has almost completely disappeared, and only parts of it were still visible.

The Gazelles with codes BPK, BPP and BPS were inside hangars next to the static line. All six were easily visible through the windows. All other helicopters mentioned here, could only be seen if one was able to obtain access to the flightline. They were all parked inside the three hangars on the east side of the tarmac. Some of them did move during the airshow weekend. EC725AP, 2628/BJN flew on Saturday morning, and was moved in the far side dome hangar by 13:00 hours. SA330Ba, 1186/BRL made a round trip to Cazaux on Saturday morning, later on this day it was moved inside one of the hangars.

It is believed that this is F-ZWTM (SA365MTR, c/n 6005), but confirmation is required. The air show at Pau provided a good opportunity to log some new Tigre and EC725 Armeé de Terre helicopters. The atmosphere at the event was very relaxed, with most hangars at the static side open for the public. A bit unusual for an ALAT air show, but still very welcome, were three jet fighters on display at the static show. Also present was a wide assortment of warbirds. An interesting item amongst these planes was the former Moroccan CAP231. The plane was still painted in the famous red colours, of the display team Marche Verte (Green March). Also present, but not mentioned in our list, was Harvard replica F-AZZM.
