Airbus A330-223
F-RARF · ICAO: N/A · Airliner jet

President Emmanuel Macron has led France since 2017, making him Europe's most prominent head of state and a constant presence at G7, NATO, and EU summits. His VIP air fleet is operated by ETEC (Escadron de Transport, d'Entraînement et de Calibration) from Paris Le Bourget (LFPB), flying under the CTM001 callsign.
The long-haul flagships are two Airbus A330-223s (F-RARF and F-UJCU) — the French equivalent of Air Force One. For European and shorter international travel, the fleet uses Dassault Falcon 900EXEs (F-RAFS), Falcon 7X jets (F-RAFA / F-RAFB), Falcon 900s (F-RAFP / F-RAFQ), and Falcon 2000s (F-RAFC / F-RAFD). France's domestic Dassault manufacturer means the Falcon jets are a point of national pride.
Macron has faced intense domestic criticism over perceived hypocrisy on climate — flying privately to meetings on sustainability — making his flight movements a major source of media interest.
