Pilot Comments for LFLC

ILS approach according to the charts without radar vectors was straightforward. Landing and parking requested via www.touchngo.fr. No airport slot required. Parking on Apron V requested by radio. After paying the invoice by mobile phone (the payment service did not work with the Firefox browser; the hotline directed me to an alternative such as Safari), the PIN code for the turnstile arrives by email. This is also needed to leave the apron. Landing and one night's parking with a DA62: 58,-- Euro. Refuelling with Air Total at the self-service fuel station. Bolt to the city centre for 24 Euro.

Billing in Clermont Ferrand is now handled via https://www.touchngo.fr as well. After registration you create an aircraft profile and, using that profile, create a flight with the relevant data. An invoice is generated in the background, which you can pay directly via the app. When creating the flight I left a note that no additional handling services were required.
GA parking is "V" all the way on the west side, near the fuel station. Entry and exit to/from the area is through a door (keypad code) by the Aero-Club (which is directly next to the "V" parking).
Self-service refueling with a Total card.
Charges in August 2026 (TB10):
Parking: €24,10 / day
I only parked for two days but paid for three. In return, no landing fee was charged.

Clermont-Ferrand Auvergne (LFLC) is a large regional airport with relatively low traffic and both commercial and general aviation operations. IFR and VFR procedures are straightforward, with radar vectors available for instrument approaches and generally accommodating ATC. Handling is typically mandatory and provided by Vinci Airports, though arrangements via local aeroclubs may be possible. Movement on the apron is usually restricted; walking to the terminal is permitted only for crew wearing high-visibility vests, while passengers must use an airport minibus or bus service. At times, especially on weekends, GA terminal staff may be absent and invoices are sent by post, sometimes with a surcharge.
Landing fees for non-commercial GA are moderate, with examples ranging from about €20 to €40 for short stays or overnight parking. Example: landing and parking about €40. Fees often include access to waiting areas with water, coffee, and basic amenities. Payment is frequently handled after departure via invoice rather than on-site.
Fuel (Avgas and Jet A1) is available via self-service pumps or fuel trucks; payment by Total card or credit card is possible, though credit card use at the pump may require advance notice for staff assistance. Fueling is generally quick, but isolated delays have occurred. Several car hire agencies operate at the airport, and taxis to the city center cost around €30. Uber service is also available.
Facilities include a business/GA terminal with free WiFi, refreshments, toilets, and basic briefing options; some vending machines are present but no full-service restaurant is consistently reported on-field. A basic hotel exists on the airfield, with a wide range of accommodation in the nearby city.
Customs/immigration services are available despite AIP entries sometimes stating "Customs NIL"; police handle border formalities during their published hours (see AIP). Direct flights to/from Switzerland are permitted with police clearance.
Approaches are uncomplicated but terrain awareness is important due to surrounding hills and glider/paraglider activity near Puy de Dôme. Occasional turbulence and wind shear may occur on approach; see AIP/NOTAM for cautions. Procedures vary; see AIP/NOTAM.
LFLC offers efficient handling for GA pilots seeking a convenient stopover or entry point into central France.
