Weapons Ranges in France & Belgium

Grey matter being overtaken here by greying cells. Anyone remember the names of two ranges in France and Belgium?
The one in France sounds like "Snippes", the Belgian "Villers". (Not Vliehors - I remember that one).
Thanks.

Thanks. Suippes, how could I forget that name with all the G&T I drink?
There was also "Pampa"/"Helchteren" range but the one I am after was in Belgium and popular with A-10s.

Crikey, that is brilliant. I will archive that PDF in case I get back on the "WIWAB" horse and need to check some place names.

This trawl was to help Ben Dunnell who is transcribing a taped interview with an A-10 driver. On balance, I think the range he is looking for that sounds like "Villers" has to be "Vliehors".

Many thanks for your expert responses.
