f you want to do some cheap circuits, or IFR approaches, come to LFOP (Rouen). One series of t&g is the price of a landing (10 €)
And quickest immigration turnaround!
Completely free at Jersey, if you uplift fuel.
Calais ?
Chambley LFJY – no fee for T&G.
Total fuel 24h w/ card.
Quickest turn around for immigration ? You sure ?
mmmh it would be difficult to beat Dinard (LFRD), where I landed, walked to the building, showed passports, on the way back payed 7 € (yes, correct, seven euros for 1400kg MTOW) landing fee in the shed next to the parking and departed – total time under 30min – depending on walking speed, of course.
Could have taken avgas @ 1.85€/L.

Something along the lines of “vacate next right, taxi holding point X, cleared for takeoff” is quicker. I’ve been told airport was empty “if you know what i mean” but still landed.
Actually Le Havre LFOH called me once a couple hours before the flight to tell me that they weren’t coming so I could proceed direct to destination, which I guess is quicker.

wow – I have had quite some positive experience of French folks having strict rules, but living pragmatically with it.
This is great, though. Have taken note and concur
