Back to the beacon list.


Compiegne VOR/DME CPE, 20 July 2007

The Aerad book stated that near to the airport of Compiegne a Locator beacon exist. So Wim was very surprised when he saw a VOR/DME. Luckily, just outside a military airfield. So let’s be quickly at the job, taking photos
. After that we took a visit at the flying school. They did know that the Locator CO had disappeared and that the same soon would happen with the VOR/DME. Even the helicopter airport was closed that spring.

You will find the airport by taking the exit to Margny-les-Compiegne at the N1031. Go left – the road turns under the N1031 en take the turn right after driving about 2km. Direct after passing the helicopter base there is a road to the right direction beacon.
