Drone aerial photography in Châteauroux

Free quote — aerial photography in Châteauroux

Around Châteauroux, open country meets the urban fabric: aerial photography documents a single building or a whole district alike, with Église Saint-Martial et vieille ville setting the scale. From the town centre to the business parks, the pilots covering Châteauroux and its department (36) match equipment and flight plan to each order.

Prefecture of the Indre at the heart of Berry, Châteauroux grew around the Château Raoul and the Cordeliers convent on the banks of the Indre. Its aeronautical singularity dominates everything: Châteauroux-Centre "Marcel Dassault" airport (LFLX), heir to a US NATO base, has one of France's longest runways (3,500 m) and hosts aircraft testing, heavy cargo, pilot training and maintenance — its CTR and unpredictable activity require systematic coordination for any flight in the northern sector of the conurbation. The local economy leans on this platform (logistics, aeronautical maintenance), textile heritage (Balsan) and cereal farming of the Champagne berrichonne.
