Wershofen/Eifel Airport (EDRV)

Nice airfield with an active gliding club and friendly people. There is a restaurant open on weekends with a small menu, a selection of cakes, and coffee. The approach to RWY 25 is straightforward; the runway has a slight uphill gradient and a slight lateral slope. In practice it’s far less critical than the AIP makes it appear. For an uphill takeoff, with the treeline ahead, keep some performance reserves and have a Plan B. Landing fee is at your discretion—drop it in the donation box in the tower. The major drawback is the condition of the runway and taxiway: the undulations and bumps are a stress test even for robust landing gear. A pity, because otherwise it’s a very nice field that deserves more frequent visits.
