Madrid - pilot supplies

I am going to Madrid for a few weeks, and wondered where in the area of Barajas one could buy pilot supplies?

Thank you

Madrid lacks any real pilot shops, the only ones I know are in the cuatro vientos airport, there is one in the terminal building and another in the office building near by. Good luck

THank you for the answer, Richiya, but where does when then go to buy headsets, charts and other pilot supplies, when living/staying in Madrid?

I will try these two shops, though, thanks.

There is other one in Gran Via.
The one from LECU is too expensive.

Good luck

Bubble, if you could just tell me if they have normal opening hours or what - I assume they have Siesta?

Thank you all for answering

I don´t know about "normal" opening hours or siesta, but I can tell you that some times you may have some trouble trying to get through on the phone. That´s why I said if you have to much trouble and no answer on that phone, I may be able to get you a mobile number.

Regards,

Bubble, I just wanted to drop by and browse the shop, so the phone need not be open as long as I know when they are open. Some pilot shops are low volume sales type with limited opening hours, ie some days closed all day.

They wiuldn't have a home page or an email address, would they? Have found the location, less than 10 km from where I stay, so that's OK.

Thank you

I´ve just posted the phone number so that you can check with them before hand, opening hours and if they have what you are looking for at a competitive price
