Toulouse – Lasbordes Airport (French: Aéroport de Toulouse - Lasbordes) is a small non-commercial airport in the commune of Balma, situated 4km (02miles) east of the city center of Toulouse, both located in the Haute-Garonne department of the Midi-Pyrénées region in southwest France.
The airport resides at an elevation of 460feet above mean sea level. It has a 950x asphalt runway for light airplanes and a 350x grass strip for microlights. The runways are located very close to the large highway surrounding Toulouse.
From the air, the airport is easily found by looking for a large upright Ariane space rocket located in Cité de l'espace (Space Museum) on the opposite side of the motorway.
