8,50 € for each pax (10 € for extra CEE flights)
Landing fees few 2,75 € + 13,74 € for apron mangment + 0,08 € for each ton x

Thanks for the tip... checking them now.
I have finally heard from Oristano (2 days later). No avgas, and indeed it is notamed too.
If Figaro has no fuel, the alternate would have to be Ajaccio (H24, the works).

Sorry to insist IO540, but Figaro is a barber, a very famous barber. The Corsican city and a/d are called Figari. Asking for Figaro a/d in Italy or its vicinity might lead to unexpected behaviour from local authorities.

I've never heard of Figaro
(Not that I'm qualified to judge, having been kicked out of conservatory after the first semester, due to incompetence.
)

I have not got a response from Figari for past 3 days, to emails, faxes, AFTN messages, and the ARO phone # is not answered. Great stuff.
I just need an alternate for Cagliari LIEE which has avgas and which is less than 100nm away...
Now trying Ajaccio LFKJ (an H24 airport with "everything") but the person who knows about fuel will not be back till tomorrow
I have done this kind of stuff many times but this one is taking longer than usual.
No wonder the Americans take the p1ss out of Europe.. though one must admit that part of Europe is really N Africa. Greece (which many people find hard) is much easier.

Have you tried the aeroclub at Figari?
Aeroclub Sud Corse - Figari
Contact : roger . fillinger at wanadoo . fr ou 06.33.67.88.26 (from http://aerofil.monsite-orange.fr/page1/index.html)
and, should you want an interpreter/translator, my French is much better than my Italian...

Many thanks - have emailed him.
BTW I have finally heard back from Tortoli LIET.
FLT NON SKED MUST OBTAIN PPR 48HR
BEFORE BY PHONE +30 0782 624900 OR FAX +39 0782 624901.
and NO avgas.
So I now have confirmations from the actual airports of NO avgas in Sardinia except Cagliari LIEE.
Ajaccio LFKJ in Corsica have just told me they have avgas. Figari I have been unable to contact by any means.

I just called the Figari airport managing authority (+33495711001) and got a reply. The lady who answered confirmed that there had recently been issues with the supply of 100 LL but she assured me it was now sorted out and that everything was in order again.
Being a native French speaker, I'd be happy to assist with any further contacts you may need for French airports.

Many thanks PA24 - that was the number on which there was no reply earlier. I will take this on board but it is too late to change plans now. We are flying direct from the UK tomorrow morning, 900nm. The forecast tailwind is impressive but not necessary On the way back, due to headwinds, I may stop at St Yan LFLN which is a stop well known to me, where there won't be any problems.

Well with the jet stream looking like this and a well established high with no frontal activity you will have an easy trip.
Just be selective about your return routing if you wish to make good speed having just come the wrong way!
Enjoy.

I am "pleased" to report that in line with Italian tradition Oristano LIER does have avgas but won't sell it to anybody that anybody present will own up to knowing
We landed at Caglieri LIEE, with efficient handling by aeroservice.it for about 50 euros plus some small charge for parking. I doubt any ATCO south of Corsica would have qualified for ICAO Level 1 English but one is used to that down there
6hrs or so airborne time; loads of tailwind. Got some reasonable pics e.g.

Headwind 5-10kt most of the way. Took about 6hrs, on best-economy cruise.
I can understand the resistance to ICAO Level 4 English among ATC. Italy might make Level 1 Quite dodgy stuff goes on the radio, at times.

Desperate enough to necropost
Dear All,
Does anyone have up-to-date experience with Alghero LIEA? I am going to visit north-west Sardinia with my family (by CAT) and would like to explore possibilities to get checked out on a PA28 and fly solo for a bit. Years ago, i.e. before the previous family trip there I recall finding a website of a local flying school, now nowhere to be found. Closed down?
