What other pilots say about LFGI
A/A radio. Be advised: if you transmit in English, the locals may not take you fully seriously and might cut in onto the runway despite your base/final calls. Standard practice there is something like an overhead arrival, UK style. Taxis are hard to get, but Uber works well, 25–30 euros to Dijon. Impressive refurbishment operation and, of course, Robin/CEAPR on site. Two Avgas options: Total (with Total Card) or, cheaper, Avia (credit card). The flying club is very friendly. Overall a recommended stop, with no landing or parking fees.
No landing or parking fees. Self-service fuel available: Avgas (100LL) via Total card, Avia self-service with credit card, and unleaded (Super Bleifrei/Mogas 95/98). Covered Avia pump in the north area. Example: taxi to Dijon about €30; Uber also works well. Air/air frequency; radio calls in French only, with locals sometimes disregarding English calls. Circuit can be busy with local traffic, gliders, and aerobatics; overhead arrivals are typical. Grass runway available. Runway 02 rises significantly and has cross slope; parking areas may be sloped—chocks recommended. Maintenance available on site (ARS). Clubhouse and Flying Legends hangar present; friendly atmosphere. Webcams on airfield website. Procedures vary; see AIP/NOTAM.
