Morning All!
I fly from a wee airfield just north of Paris (Creil LFPC). I'd like to do a few hops across the channel this spring/summer and was wondering what airfield to pop into to clear customs. Years ago I would fly into Le Touquet (LFAT) which was always pretty painless. Alas from Creil, it makes sense to make a 10 minute trip into either Beauvais-Tille (LFOB) or Pontoise (LFPT) before continuing to God's country.
So my question is, has anyone had any success clearing customs at Beauvais? Does everyone crossing the channel pop into Le Touquet and be done with it?
If you can throw in a cost for said options that would be greatly appreciated.
Blue skies all!
