Pilot Comments for LDPM
ch
Medulin is no longer an ICAO airfield — LDPM is no longer valid. In the flight plan, file ZZZZ and the coordinates (SD does it automatically). Pula Tower provides coordination all the way to the field and, from “ready for departure,” also while on the ground. In busier traffic, you can also call Medulin on 123.5, including blind calls on approach. In December that’s generally not necessary. RWY 12 is slightly uphill. Officially the RWY is grass (fairly level) and the asphalt path is the taxiway. But departures are made on it and, off-season, landings too. To Pula or Medulin it’s just under 4 km each — with the kwiggle no problem. Medulin is a nice town with a promenade, beach, and good restaurants. LDG 15€, PKG 25€/night. No Avgas — Portoroz at 2.37€/L is currently unbeatable. For me, a pleasant and welcoming alternative to Pula.

I can second the previous comments. I was there on 10 July 2021, also because Pula wouldn’t accept us. Very friendly aerodrome. Hangar €25 per night; otherwise free of charge. We had a minor technical issue and were helped with exceptional courtesy. Perfect!

Medulin airfield no longer holds an ICAO code; use ZZZZ and coordinates in flight plans. PPR is required before arrival. Pula Tower coordinates traffic to the circuit, with frequency changes to 123.500 for Medulin; blind calls are possible if the frequency is unattended. The runway is grass and slightly uphill on 12; what appears as an asphalt runway is actually a taxiway, occasionally approved for takeoff but not for landing. Parking is on asphalt or concrete with tie-downs; hangar space may be available.
No fuel is available at Medulin. Technical landings for fuel are possible at Pula (LDPL), about 4 km or a 5-minute flight away. Taxis to Pula city cost about €30, and to Medulin town about €20–€22; both towns are within 4 km of the field. Accommodation can be arranged locally, with hotels and beaches nearby.
Fees have increased: landing about €15, outdoor parking €25–€35 per night, hangar parking €25–€45 per night. Example: landing about €15; outdoor parking about €35 per night; hangar parking about €45 per night.
The atmosphere is friendly and welcoming, with personal service on arrival. Pilots highlight the relaxed environment and helpful staff, though some note less accommodating service on departure. The field can experience strong Bora winds; secure aircraft accordingly. The grass runway may have minor undulations and loose stones—land near the edge rather than the centerline.
Medulin serves as a practical alternative to Pula for general aviation, especially when parking at Pula is unavailable. Procedures vary; see AIP/NOTAM.
