The Air Base of Pantano Lake is amongst the most beautiful ones in Italy. It started working in 1991.

Beside the landing strip, this place has an important sports centre with five-a-side football and tennis fields, skating rinks, two covered swimming pools and a good restaurant.

Inside this centre, families and visitors can practice several activities, such as attend a flying school for flying ultra light planes, let their children play in the well-equipped playgrounds and taste the specialties of the restaurant. The Air Base is 600 metres long and is in the plain of Pignola.

Its beauty is increased by the presence of a winch for sailplanes: a facility that few Italian air bases have.
