Kamenz is a former military airfield, but it’s quite active thanks to various aviation operators. Straightforward approach, except for minding the corners of Dresden Class D airspace; friendly tower. The AI summary is basically correct: I’ve been to "Villa Weiße" several times; otherwise, for simple food my favorite is "Papagei Kebab Haus." If you’re hoping for diesel: it used to be sold, somewhat awkwardly, by the glider pilots, but to my knowledge that’s no longer possible. Aerops is accepted for the landing fee, but in May 2025 I had trouble paying the parking fees through it and had to wait for "the tower." The nearest JET-A1 fueling option is in Bautzen.

Kamenz (EDCM) is a large, welcoming airfield north of the Elbsandsteingebirge, known for its friendly and helpful staff. The airfield is easy to find and features a generous runway and apron area. The circuit altitude is 700 feet. Several maintenance facilities and aircraft dealers are based on site.

Mogas is available with advance notice by phone, and Avgas (100LL) is also offered. Super Plus fuel can be provided from a tanker. No Jet A1 is available. The fueling process is efficient, with staff often assisting at the pump. Example: landing fee about €10. Parking for one night and landing together cost about €20.

A simple but friendly snack bar operates at the airfield, with additional dining options nearby; the Pinke Café in the old town is noted as a highlight. Accommodation options include a hotel opposite the field, though some prefer Hotel Villa Weiße for its pilot rates, shuttle service, and restaurant. Public bus line 21 stops directly at the airfield entrance.

The runway condition is described as good, though some taxiways use concrete slabs that can be bumpy. Direct approaches from the west are discouraged due to glider activity; strict adherence to the circuit pattern is expected. Procedures vary; see AIP/NOTAM.

Kamenz offers a positive experience for general aviation pilots seeking fuel, maintenance, or a pleasant stopover near the Polish border.
