Toulouse - Lasbordes Airport (French: Aéroport de Toulouse - Lasbordes) (ICAO: LFCL) is a small non-commercial airport in the commune of Balma, situated four km east of the city of Toulouse^[1], both located in the Haute-Garonne département of the Midi-Pyrénées région in south-west France

There is a 950m asphalt runway for light airplanes and a 400m grass strip for microlights. The runways are located very close to the large highway surrounding Toulouse. From the airy, the airport is easily found by looking for a standing large Ariane space rocket located in Cité de l'espace (Space Museum) on the opposite side of the motorway.
