I still need to fly my Savannah back up to la Rochelle for my transponder to be refitted and this week there is a very limited weather window. Tomorrow looks good and possibly also Thursday, but tomorrow is definitely the better of the two.
I have just checked with the la Rochelle tower for permission to fly in without a transponder which should normally be forthcoming but there’s a complication. The runway is closed to all but commercial and essential traffic from the early morning until 3.00 pm local time which would make it impossible for me to get there and back tomorrow while the weather holds.
The tower referred me to the relevant NOTAM and advised me to call the mobile number included in it to see if I can be granted permission, which I have just done. The answer… no worries!
La Rochelle is a fantastic airport to fly into and you can’t beat flying in France for being so cool and laid back!
