AI-generated, may contain errors. This post will disappear once a human-written PIREP is posted.Abbeville (LFOI) is an uncontrolled airfield with a long hard runway, primarily suited for VFR operations. There is no tower or aerodrome information service; all communication is air-to-air, typically on 123.5, and pilots should use blind calls for circuit and runway selection. Parachuting and gliding activity are frequent, so vigilance in the circuit is important. Procedures vary; see AIP/NOTAM.
Fuel (Avgas and 91UL) is available via self-service. The airfield features a well-regarded, family-run restaurant and a recently refurbished on-field hotel (Hôtel L’Aérodrome de la Baie de Somme), both popular for overnight stays and fly-ins. The restaurant is closed Sunday evening and all day Monday, and the hotel offers 16 en-suite rooms. There are limited activities within walking distance, but the town is accessible by bicycle.
Landing fees are generally low. Example: landing fee about €10. No parking fee reported.
Customs availability has changed; Abbeville is not currently a customs entry point, so alternative airports may be required for international arrivals.
Sheep may graze near the runway at times.
