Landing And Service

We landed in Mai 2013, with PPR from Giorgio Cattaneo, the Owner. All Info from AvioPortolano. The Runway was much wider than 20 m and a good 840 m And more to pass over the trees on both sides. Parking for 5 days was safe and cheap. Giorgio drove us to Cefalu in his car. Camping possible, however no sanitary installations.

It's two helipads

There are actually *two* helipads in the LKH clinic. One is located on top of the surgical ward (the highest building of the clinic, located on the western edge of the area), the other one is near the pediatric (on the northeastern corner of the clinic). Both are clearly visible on Googlemaps.

Airfield first impression

First time in Pons Avy...After being careful to avoid the Cognac Air Force Base areas all around, max alt 1500 ft QNH and 3000 ft around Cognac CTR when Combat areas activated, we achieve our trip to Pons. Beautiful site, middle of fields and vineyards. Runway with downslope (31), but long enough, with a little hill north of the airfield that gives to the situation a great sighting. Calm and peaceful, sympathetic guys in local airclub. Great experience.

Open space

I visited the park on the old airport site today. I'm sad that it closed, but it's still worth a visit: people use the runways for cycling, jogging, rollerblading, and kite-surfing, and for a pilot (or aviation fan), it's interesting being able to walk up to the hold-short line for 27R, then on along the runway.

Ground transportation

I landed at Tegel this week, so clearly it's still open, despite the comment I left 7 1/2 years ago. As the Wikipedia article mentions, walking distances are extremely short β€” in less than 5 minutes, I was off the plane and in a cab.

A taxi to my hotel near the Heinrich-Heine Straße U-Bahn station was €35, which is a bit pricey. I have since discovered that there is an express bus "TXL" that takes 41 minutes from Alexanderplatz to Tegel (or vice versa). Details here: http://www.bvg.de/index.php/en/17131/name/JetExpressBus+TXL.html

Good place to go

Very fine restaurant on site "De Kei". Intense glider activity including winch launching, overhead joins are a NO NO.

Short runway?

Do not be daunted by the published runway length of 150 metres - there are longish extensions each way, and the lawn is tended better than any golf course could be. Totally unobstructed approaches, too, but do mind the unavoidable ubiquitous difficult neighbours, as mentioned in the a/d documents. Do consult the website, and mind the PPR.

Great little airport with plenty of action

Grenchen Airport is perfect for learning to fly, has hard surface and grass runway 07 / 25.

There are many nice special events, like the helicopter-weekend, and the modelaircraft show, besides parajumping and glider activities.

Or, take a scenic ride in a vintage Antonov AN-2, the largest biplane ever produced (which is stationed there) to the beautiful swiss alps and back, always a wonderful experience. Space for up to 12 passengers, flown by two pilots. See: http://www.avschweiz.ch/

The airport also has a Best Western Hotel & restaurant.

Fuel?

Is fuel available either at Sandown or Bembridge?

Picture of

FUEL

As a light aircraft pilot considering a trip to Gronholt it would have been useful to know whether 100LL is available. An indication of landing fees would also have been helpful.

That said, thanks for the info.
