    Newcastle co wicklow, http://www.einc.ie Great place for a visit,usually have a courtesy car if pre booked, but not far to greystones where you can pick up the Dart into Dublin , Another good airfield if it's still open is Weston to the west of Dublin, the VFR route is overhead the city following the river Liffey, but not as easy to get back to the city by public transport, Regards Ivor phillips Sent from my iPad > On 30 Mar 2014, at 21:49, "graeme bird" <graeme@gdbmk.co.uk> wrote: > > > Thinking of trips for this year, and must get to Ireland from Beds UK, any recommendations for a day trip, friendly field near something interesting?

Graeme - when I went with the 2008 Europa Club trip to Ireland in Tim Houlihan's G-BZTH, Kilrush (EIKH) was friendly although it we found it quicker to get a lift to the nearest petrol station with a jerry-can than wait for the pumps to open! I think Tim has also done a day trip to Kilkenny (EIKK) where he was made welcome. in friendship Rowland | Rowland Carson ... that's Rowland with a 'w' ... | <rowlandcarson@gmail.com> http://www.rowlandcarson.org.uk | Skype, Twitter: rowland_carson Facebook: Rowland Carson | pictures: http://picasaweb.google.com/rowlandcarson

    Irrespective of the permission requirement (most fly without as far as I know) the transition is quite easy, especially when you are in contact with Brussels Information. You can either fly (roughly) via Calais, Kortrijk, between the Brussels and Antwerp CTR below 1500 ft to Venlo/Maastricht (what I did) and you are clear of restricted airspaces. Last weekend we were at Manston and one crew got a DCT from Oostende (over Brussels!) to Aachen EDKA at FL 100. At weekends you can also expect many of the restricted areas to be not active. Nontheless you should be aware of the restricted airspaces and when in doubt ask for clearance. Read this topic online here: http://forums.matronics.com/viewtopic.php?p=421336#421336

Lots of experience here. Just coast in to the VOR south of Oostende, fly east of the airfield, and proceed up from there. I cross the Belgian airspace multiple times per year and occasionally even land there, but never have notified or paid anyone for it. The Belgian ATC's are friendly and cooperative.

    Dave, I have flown along the Belgian coast at least 20 times with others or solo and there has never been a problem. This infers that ATC quite rightly have no interest in querying whether you have all your paperwork in place and that you will probably get away with it. However if you have an incident the Belgian CAA will come into play and would no doubt hold it against you that you have not asked their permission and paid 88 euros for the privilege. You pays your money (or not!) and takes your choice! Personally having refused to pay the last demand (for a brief visit to Waterloo on a Charity flight) I now avoid Belgian airspace altogether.

    Graeme, I have thoroughly enjoyed visiting Eglinton/Derry. Pleasant people, good restaurant, spectacular coast nearby, Giants Causeway to visit on the way there. Also enjoyed Newtownards for easy access to Belfast. Had looked forward to Weston for trip into Dublin, but weather intervened. Have visited Cork, but do NOT recommend it. (expensive & inconvenient). If you are prepared to make it more than a day I strongly recommend Galway and excursions out to the Arran Islands, looking at Alcock & Brown's landing site, etc. You certainly need a GAR form which needs to go to customs and to Police. The requirements are complex and I suggest looking at: www.gov.uk/government/publications/general-aviation-operators-and-pilots-notification-of-flights where you will find latest regs.
