Calais Customs under Threat - Free landing 'til 18th
Apparently the customs and immigration facilities at Calais are "under review" for which read "threat". This is presumably part of the French Govt. "cost reduction" programme and would be a real propblem for UK based private pilots; do we all really want to pay Le Touquet landing fees? More, the loss of Calais as an ILS practice opportunity for southern UK based pilots would be very unfortunate.
Apparently the decision will be taken shortly and will probably be based on the traffic levels. Calais is offering the first full stop landing FREE for a/c less than 1.5 tonnes from UK until 18th May.
Tell your flying friends and try to take the trip to preserve this valuable access point to France.
