Just picking up on a point raised in one of the above mentioned replies.
DO NOT FORGET TO CLOSE YOUR FLIGHT PLAN WHEN LANDING IN FRANCE. It could be very expensive.
As President of Atlantic Airpark I am telephoned frequently by Nantes or Bordeaux if somebody landing here has not closed within a short time of intended landing time. Not only that, it seems that every "G or N" reg 'plane that fails to close with an intended landing anywhere near here, I get those calls too.
Its nice to know we are being looked after, but its a pain for me, especially if I have to get out of the pool to answer the 'phone. Bons vols.
