I am planning Perpignan LFMP Fri-Sun.
Needs PPR via https://app.mydz.fr which, for a change, seems to function. 24hr/48hr PN but that most of France now, non schengen.
Not been there before.
You are likely to get parked in northern GA parking,
It’s hassle free airport but it’s easy to get lost when no one around: I once fuelled using the automatic TOTAL pump on the far south-east, the wife went to aeroclub toilette but she could not open the door to get back, she walked 2km to CAT terminal, I taxied for about 3km to north-west GA parking, then walked back to CAT terminal, we manage to meet up again after 40min…
You can depart IFR from the small runway if you are too lazy to taxi all the way to the long runway
Changed to LFMT due to 2 days of rain forecast at LFMP.
LFMT has no PN and has avgas (someone coming called them) so the French fuel strike is not an issue anymore there.
Got a CTOT due to another French ATC strike though but only a little one
3 of us coming now.
Le Touquet Sat 26th Nov
I’ll be there.
Great trip.
Lille Radar, ILS13, DCT TUKVI, cleared to land as soon as LOC established, bikes into town, great lunch, walkabout, stock up on chocs and wine, great flight back. What a great airport. Why can’t they all be like that?
€30 landing, €12 for a bike.
Just perfect
Started to rain just as I landed back. Welcome home
Someone’s parked their fancy 210 in front of my 172 in that photo!
Nice to see a couple of new (to me faces), as well as Peter, in the EU this time :-)
in the EU this time
I had to google on that one
Andorra’s situation internationally is quite unique. Our country isn’t part of the European Union or the Schengen area, but we do have free movement agreements with our neighbouring countries. That’s why it couldn’t be easier to enter the Principality.
I will be flying around Switzerland & France border whole next week if anyone fancy a fly-in meet-up in one of the spots: Annecy, Lausanne, Sion, Annemasse…
Anyone for lunch at LFAT Sunday 19th Feb?
