Cool, so now we only need to spread the word :)
If you believe everything you read on the internet, you have a lot of weird things to digest…
throw in some conspiracy theories…
And hey presto, life is dangerous ;-)
This contains the German concession that if on an EU-reg aircraft, and without merchandise on board, no customs are required for leaving Germany towards non-EU.
So, nothing directly to do with importing an aircraft. And nothing to do with the Würzburg case either, since that was about a flight from CH to GER.
Doesn’t say anything about registrations Zwang though.
Would the CH – GER flight not be covered by “aus einem Drittland oder Drittgebiet einfliegende Flugzeuge
grundsätzlich nur auf einem sogenannten Zollflugplatz landen” except when non-commercially operated?

Germans are always quite complex. Therefore our world would be to simple if we only had “Customs Airfields” and “Non-Customs Airfields” but there is also a third category in between that the customs authorities call “Special Airfield” (“Besonderer Landeplatz”).
The good news is: For all practical purposes of non commercial flights w/o customs goods on board those “special airfields” work the same way as customs airfields do …

Yes – a CH-GER flight has to use a customs airfield or a special airfield.
Hardest thing sometimes is to remember that Lugano is a Swiss and not an Italian city and therefore you actually arrive from outside the union …. but that is a different story ;-)
