Muahahaha...... Basa Airbase is just the name of the barangay..... with a population of about 4700 residents. It is not an actual airbase.
You may have been confused by the old Basa Airbase which used to house the 7th Tactical Fighter Wing of the PAF. With the dwindling resources of the PAF.... they could not afford any maintenance to upkeep their fleet of F-5s jets.... and with the eruption of Mt Pinatubo in 1991...... the airbase's infrastructure was so heavily damaged that it was abandoned and the survivors were distributed to other military bases in other parts of the PI.
In 1994, those folks who were homeless were given permission to seek shelter in the dilapated buildings of former Basa Airbase...... in 2007 it was officially recognised as a barangay of Pampanga and retained the name Basa Airbase.
The place the Princess Refreshment was located is a stretch of road leading towards the airbase consisting of several pinoy bars and ktvs.
