It's a ski and snowboard resort in Courchevel, France. Not only is it a heliport, but also an airport.

Cool photos, I like the one up in North Carolina they showed. Its a private field I believe, and has a golf course surrounding it.

Pic 5 should be Andover/Aeroflex, NJ- 1900' w/ water hazards at either end. Good tailwheel school there, Harrison Ford and others were customers there. Fun in a Pitts.

That is NUTS. Is there a Mic controlled traffic light so cars won't be on the runway when you land?
