Andravída is one of three bases on the Peloponnesus peninsula. It houses the remaining HAF Phantom fleet with 338, 339 Mira and 117 SMET based. Also a tactical fighter school is located here for doctrine training.
The airfield has a north-south runway with shelter areas in the north east and south west corner. The north west houses the tactical fighter school's apron which can be seen from the northern perimeter fence. The base also houses a tactical training course which means there are usually a couple of fighters present from other units. The ramp for this unit is situated in the north western part of the base.
The base is conveniently located close to the E55 which runs from Patras to Pirgos. Leave this road at the village of Lechaina and go east.
Beautiful spook in pale blue-grey camouflage.
