Cheer for your very complete site!

Researcher in Inventaire of Brittany (France) (Inventory and studies of the littoral fortifications of the 17th century to the Atlantic Wall), I have three aerodromes in my corpus :

Guipavas (29),

Ploujean (France, 29, Finistère: more than 8 km of tracks, 60 avéoles, walls splinterproof shield, quarterings, blockhouse, Flak...) and Lannion (22, coast-in Armor)

I seek infos on the German aerodromes of Brittany, would have bibliography? or others...

PS: I made during the holidays of Christmas, the aerodrome of Lédquent (Pas-de-Calais) and his many murals. To recommend!

Photographs in no-claims bonus:

Plan of the aerodrome of Ploujean (Files of the departmental service of mining)

A track rings some with plates at the cardinal points, here, North. One of the murals of Lédquent.

In advance thank you still cheer. Guillaume

Ledquent is situated in the perimeter of Marquise-Ost.

The murals must to be painted in 1942 or after. The gunners of this Flak concrete fortification must to be in North Africa before their unit was transfered in Pas de Calais aera. Palm trees on the paintings are visible near the Méditerannée rather Mer du Nord !

Ten years ago broken dishes with Luftwaffe insignias were available near or in this fortification.

Sincerely,
