Dinard airfield is being revamped at the moment, they are resurfacing runways and installing new lights,so read your notams. Quite often it is closed to all traffic e.g totally closed from 0600 31/3 until 1800 4/4. At other times often the only runway in use is 12/30, VOR OOS DME OOS ILS OOS, listen out on 124.57 when inbound to get latest gen. The ATCO's there speak good English but are not too impressed with the British PPL's that do not check Notams before setting off. I was there on Thursday when an inbound UK light aircraft had to force land in a field as running low on fuel and flying in deteriorating weather and dusk also apparantly not having any up to date charts or any idea of whereabouts. luckily it was a Rallye and the force landing was successful and aircraft flew out the following day and positioned to Dinard.
