Flying to UK from a non-customs & immigration airfield in France
Hi there guys
I am thinking of flying to France for the weekend. My route out of the UK is not a problem. Both airfields have all the necessary customs and immigration facilities.
However, after hopping around some airfields in France, I would eventually like to fly from Saumur (Loire Valley) to the channel Isles. The problem is that Saumur is not a designated customs and immigration airfield.
Some people tell me that I am only allowed to make international flights into and out of customs and immigration airfields. Others tell me that I can make my trip as intended (Saumur to Channel Isles) as long as I submit the appropriate paperwork to the appropriate people at the appropriate time.
However, no-one is able to tell me exactly how.
Any of you GA guys able to shed some light on how to do this? More importantly, any of you guys able to get me in contact with the right people and the correct forms….
Form names/numbers?
Fax/phone numbers?
Many thanks
Rob
