This airfield is situated in the southwest of the country near the desert city Laâyoune. Detachments of the air force with F-5 should be in situ most of the time, as well as some transport and liaison aircraft.

Getting There

1Northeast side ramp view

According to the map and lay-out of the airfield you can reach the perimeter opposite the civil ramp.

Both approaches are right over the road following the airfield permeter on the north side. Views should be excellent.

3Northside approach rwy 21

As said above, the other approach clears the N1 road running past the airfield. This runway is outside of the build-up area so you should be able to find a spot on the northside of this road.

4Northwest side ramp view

Follow the N1 road further to the east, it makes a bend to the left towards the south and from there the military ramps should come into view.

5South side approach rwy 03

Just off the road to the southwest of the airfield a spot in the desert should be found to watch the southern approach. If you do not want to look into the sun, prepare for a hike.
