## Description

The Ardennes département has owned and run the Aérodrome des Ardennes – Etienne Riché (ICAO: LFQV, IATA: XCZ) since 2008, naming it in 2017 for a local aviation pioneer. Set in the Meuse Valley near the Belgian border at Charleville-Mézières, the field has a single 1,500-metre asphalt runway (11/29) and serves general aviation, business and tourist flying, skydiving and aerial work; an agreement with the local hospital also enables medical flights, including for transplant teams. There is no commercial scheduled or cargo service. For air freight in the Ardennes, Paris Charles de Gaulle (CDG) and Brussels (BRU) are the nearest cargo gateways.
