What other pilots say about LSGY
Airfield
AI-generated, may contain errors. This post will disappear once a human-written PIREP is posted.Yverdon (LSGY) offers both an 872 m asphalt runway and a 725 m grass runway, situated in a wide, flat valley that makes approaches straightforward. PPR is required but is granted easily via a bilingual telephone recording. The airfield is generally friendly and welcoming, with staff and pilots speaking German and English. All common fuel types (100LL, 91UL, Jet-A1) are available at a self-service terminal at all times. Parking on grass may be restricted; asphalt parking is limited but manageable with assistance from local pilots.
A restaurant is available on site, though somewhat dated. The nearest public transport stop is at least a 15-minute walk away; Uber may be available but options are very limited. Example: landing fee about CHF 30; overnight parking about CHF 10.
Circuit procedures require attention to possible backtrack on runway 04 and to the deep TMA of nearby Payerne military airfield during entry and exit. Check official information for procedures when parachuting is active. Procedures vary; see AIP/NOTAM.
