General

Issy Les Moulineaux is a small heliport in the centre of the city of Paris, only one mile away from the Eiffel Tower. It is known as Héliport de Paris and is mainly used by commercial helicopter flights. It is also home to one of the many detachments of the Sécurité Civile. Nearby Issy Les Moulineaux is the headquarters of the French Air Force. The two aircraft that were preserved there have been removed in 2014 due to extensive construction works.

The hangar of the Sécurité Civile is situated in the northern corner of the heliport and can be seen from the Rue Henry Farman. Normally, one EC145 is on detachment here. When following this road to the southwest, there are various locations to watch the helicopters parked between one of the seven hangars.

2Runway 24
