[citation needed] The Bureau d'Enquêtes et d'Analyses pour la Sécurité de l'Aviation Civile, the French air accident investigation agency, has facilities at Melun Aerodrome.
[8][9] Under American control, the Ninth Air Force assigned the 416th Bombardment Group to the airport which flew A-26 Invader and A-20 Havoc attack bombers from the airfield until February 1945.
In the late 1940s, as the civil use of Orly Airport in Paris began to expand after its reconstruction from wartime damage, Melun Villaroche was used by the United States Air Force as a pilot proficiency airfield.
[11] In 1950-1951 when as a result of the Cold War threat of the Soviet Union, Melun Villaroche Airport was proposed by the United States Air Force to become a NATO transport facility.
The Americans continued to use Melun Villaroche on a limited basis for pilot proficiency flying until Évreux-Fauville AB opened in 1955 and at that point the airport was returned to full French control.
[12] Today the main users of the airfield are the Fixed-Base Operator, (AFIS); the aero-club-Melun Villaroche "Constantine Rozanoff", and collectors of vintage aircraft.
Many World War II relics can be found at the airport, abandoned taxiways with aircraft hardstands are evident with deteriorating concrete.
