Câmpia Turzii Air Base
Also known as Airbase 71, this is the primary military airstrip for Cluj and, with the fall and occupation of Bucharest, it is the primary airbase for all of Romania. This is where the remnants, those not already diverted to other stations in Europe or the Mediterranean, of the 31st Expeditionary Air Wing are based. It also serves as the location for the 173rd Airborne’ Headquarters. This Soviet-era aerodrome was built in the 1950s but has been continually updated.
