Date of Visit = July 1999

Pilot: = Mike Lynn

e-mail = lynnm@iname.com

Field Report = As a first visit, my impressions were good... Arriving from the north I could see the field next to the canal just inland, There where quite a few planes on the ground.

Customs was a quick hello to a man, who made a note of my name and then to the counter to pay for my landing 110ff including tax, the resturant next door has a good view, I'm not sure on the prices my Pax bought lunch.

If you're going to town by taxi 50ff-55ff wait around and share one, we shared on the way back aswell.

Flight plan on the way back was quick and painless, I just filled it out and walked over to the control tower and handed it over the counter, a quick look and a thumbs up was the result.
if you're worried about the RT, I had no problem with the French RT, they spoke quite clear english.

there was a minitel and a fax machine for Flight forms but they were not working when I went....

Bikes where for hire but we got there at 13:00 and there was only one left.... but you might as well share a cab anyway.

I think I'll go back mid-week if I can, the town is really busy on the weekends....

.....all in all a good day even for a low hour ppl like me...
