Brive–La Roche Airport or Aérodrome de Brive – La Roche was an airport located 3.5km (02.2miles) west of Brive-la-Gaillarde, a commune of the Corrèze department in the Nouvelle-Aquitaine region of France.

History

As of February 2011, the aerodrome is due for closure, and only accepts locally based planes.[1] A new airport known as Brive–Souillac Airport or Brive–Dordogne Valley Airport (French: Aéroport Brive – Vallée de la Dordogne,) opened on June 15, 2010.[2] The Airlinair (now HOP!) flights to and from Paris–Orly airport have been transferred to this new airport[3] as have all other passenger services.
