Tossus- almsot no vintage aircraft among the 200+ based in 20+ hangars. Not been since 2001, was aT28 there then and a few Stampes, a preserved Magister. Lots of show visitors at the weekend
Lognes- again not been since 2001, were a few based Yak 52's and a Jungmann, Broussard, attracts visitors from all over europe for the show public days.
Chelles: just a few jodels and tin, not many based, grass strip
La Ferte Alais , museum only open sundays, well worth the visit.

Of the other local fields, again 2001
Meaux- a couple of stampes, plus micros and tin
Persan- lots of micros but also Mirage 5 on the gate, 2 T6 and a Stearman, 2 Broussard's
Pointiose-just tin and visiting bizjets
Entampes- museum aircraft had moved out as the ww2 hangars had been condemed, just tin.
StCyr-not been for ages but nothing exciting

You will get airside at all of these except the biz side at Pointiose. Makes a frereshing change from this country :mad: .

The Delta Museum at Orly Airport (South of Paris), with Concorde, Mirages, Payen PA-100... but is it enough "vintage" or "light"?
