It’s a proper GA IFR airport innit? why there are not that many like this
This, Kotritjk and Rotterdam are brilliant. It’s a shame Lille has recently gone downhill with the GA fees being hiked, as that was very good service. Southend is now becoming up there for GA, what with its fees for approaches now being less prohibitive.
Ostend has literally everything: H24, beach, hotels, food, bus, taxi, train and nice two cities nearby and the good news is Southend mimics some of that !
Lille was a definitely one GA gate to Paris or UK but now it went to the rats (altough, it never had train station and decent ground connections: historically French rail company SNCF refused to connect to airports with trains for about 60 years, they had to do it recently for 3 or 4 airports hubs under strong judiciary action and lot of market pressure)
