The photoelectric plant construction on the former Toul-Rosières Air Base (TRAB) is going pretty well, as you can see on these recent aerial pictures, shot shortly before Xmas. As the photoelectric panels are "looking" southward, views from the south are really impressive, giving the impression of an almost total ground cover.

But on other pictures, taken from the north or the east of the former base, you can still notice the famous "marguerite" pattern of the former dispersal areas.
