I am hoping for a few days in France early June. The closest airfield to where I am staying is Carpentras in Provence. Has anyone any experience of this airfield? An alternative would be Avignon.

On a related issue, does anyone know of a list of airfields selling Mogas in France. I know there is a similar list and map available for Germany. I would imagine it would be ULM sites mainly.

Don't think there is a list of airfields selling mogas. Don't even know of any airfields that sell mogas. Microlight pilots usually just take their cans to the field. ULM strips are ULM only in France. You can land a ULM at an airfield but not the other way round...... Um. I ask for a lift to the local petrol station and the loan of a can or three or just use 100LL when I am microlighting.
