On July the 8th 2007, the French air force hosted it's annual airshow, meeting Arién, at the transport base Evreux, west of Paris.
Based at Evreux are three transport squadrons ET01.064 and ET02.064 with the C-160R. GAM00.056 squadron also uses AS532UL and DHC-6-300 besides the C-160R. The base, Aerienne 105, was founded in1920 with fighters and bombers in the 30s. During World War II the Germans used the base stationing Bf109s, Ju88s and Fw190s. After the war the USAF used the base housing the 465th and 317th Troop Carrier Wing with C-119s and later the C-130. In 1967 the USAF left and the airbase was returned to the French Air Force, introducing the Nord 2501 Noratlas which was later replaced by the C-160 Transall.
Highlight this year was off course the USAF display team, The Thunderbirds. Unfortunately the weather was terrible with rain almost the whole day. The Thunderbirds performed there low show.
