Oh Sure, I forgot him (talking about Christian probably) I highly recommend him, as my main FI and IRI… great skills and thousands+ great stories of aviation. I appreciated every hours spend with him, even slapped in the sim.

I know another instructor you could try to contact. Not sure if his details here are appreciated so will send you them in a pm.
You can otherwise try to call https://www.cannes-aviation.com/, they have or know instructors who can do it. (They might as well point you to Alexandra)
You can contact local airclub too (UACA or Aeroclub d’Antibes located in Cannes LFMD), they have FIs that can have your site qualification done. Check your PM also, I have a contact. Alexandra as well, and Philippe Lavieille which is a known FE here and also very busy (He’s , I don’t have his number but if you ask directly at the Ops of La Mole, they may give you some way to contact him.
Sure, i’m aware of the date and the importance to France, and tried earlier in the week. I will try again after the weekend.
If you tried today: it‘s 14/7 today, where nobody in all of France picks up the work phone…
I’m heading to Cannes next week for a couple of days, and want to gain a qualification to use La Môle whilst there. I’ve tried contacting Alexandra per telephone number above. Unfortunatly no response. Any other pointers to a qualified instructor?
FYI you can get a “discount” renewing your site qualification. You can avoid paying the handling (if you don’t get out of the plane) but still have to pay a 102 euro landing fee. Ouch!
Many thanks both!
+1 for Alexandra
May I suggest you call Alexandra. She is a flight instructor at Cannes. Her number is +33 6 67 07 85 97. She is a very good instructor, flies herself in airshows and is qualified for La Mole.
