Pilot Comments for EGNR
Philipp
As Gunter wrote; everything really wonderful. In Europe the 'FBO' concept as in the USA doesn’t really exist, but the local company 'Aviation Park' comes very close: its own apron, hangars, own fuel trucks, marshalling, lounge, etc. All of this with very friendly service and short walking distances. Also, in the UK fully IFR-capable fields with acceptable fees are very rare. Well, this is one. We obtained PPR by email from Aviation Park; they took care of forwarding it to ATC. For the IFR approach it depends somewhat on whether you are coming from the airways system or not. If not, and you are coming from the east, you must initially take great care to stay below all the controlled airspace, because ad hoc clearances are only available to a very limited extent. Then, however, trouble-free radar vectors (also rare in the UK) from Hawarden Radar onto the ILS. Fees moderate. Jet fuel at about 1,70€ per liter, typically inexpensive for the UK (even though it is cheaper elsewhere in the UK). If you are walking as a group from the apron toward the FBO (very short distance), only one person needs hi-vis. Very friendly staff. Taxi or UBER to Chester roughly 22–27€ converted. Chester is very pleasant and worth seeing.

Very nice AD with the usual UK idiosyncrasies - wear high viz and get your PPR with ATC and the FBO. Small aircraft are handled by Aviation Park at an affordable rate. We paid around 55£ for landing and two nights parking. Service was very friendly and fuel was relatively inexpensive as well. The FBO is located at the northwestern corner of the field and taxiways are a bit confusing, so have better have the AD chart ready. There is a nice Café next to the FBO.
Chester is a short Uber ride away. The city is really nice and you'll need a day to visit its sights.

PPR is required and can be arranged by phoning the tower or Hawarden Air Services. VFR pilots are accommodated on Apron N, with parking free for the first two hours. IFR arrivals can expect vectored ILS approaches at no extra cost. High visibility clothing is mandatory airside, and access is via the Flintshire Flying Club or a side gate with staff assistance; ID is required at the security barrier. The airfield offers fuel at north parking, and controllers provide a radar service on 123.350 MHz (DOC 25 nm). Chocks Away Café is available on site and popular, especially on weekends; JD Aviation may offer refreshments if the café is busy. Free WiFi is available at the Flintshire Flying Club.
Chester city centre is about 4 miles away, accessible by taxi for around £10; Enterprise Car Hire can deliver vehicles to the club. Chester Zoo and other attractions are nearby. Example: landing fee about £40; parking per day about £20. Procedures vary; see AIP/NOTAM.
