Lorient, Lann-Bihoue (LRT/LFRH) France

IATA: LRT – ICAO: LFRH
Summary
Airport type		Public, Lorient South Brittany Airport, also known as Lorient-Lann-Bihoué Airport, is the airport serving the city of Lorient. It is situated 5 km west-northwest of Lorient, a commune of the Morbihan département in the Brittany or Bretagne region of France. The airport's surprisingly large size (almost 3 km by 3 km, about half the size of O'Hare in Chicago) is explained by the fact that it was built during World War II to support German submarine operations from the nearby base in Lorient. It is currently one of the main French Navy airbases, for E-2 Hawkeye and Breguet Atlantique.
