Lunch in Le Touquet

People looking at a light aircraft

Le Touquet is around 50 minutes flying time from Headcorn.  A typical French seaside town with golden sands, ice cream and some really nice restaurants.

After departure call London Information on 124.600 to open your flight plan.  Mid Channel they will ask you to change to Lille Approach on 120.275 and then to Le Touquet Tower on 118.450.  After landing and parking we always hire bikes and cycle into town.  Shopping for cheese, bread and bouillabaisse takes a while before lunch.  No alcohol for the pilot please!

After lunch a walk on the beach before cycling back to the aeroport and a flight back to Headcorn.

Don't forget your passport.  See more about the airfield here.
