Hi Tony
The VAT certificate comes in when you have a non EU registered aeroplane (N
reg for example). You need to prove to the French customs that VAT has been
paid on the aeroplane in the EU, otherwise they will demand payment.

Pete

Tony, Transponders are required in class D airspace in France. However Le
Touquet itself has no radar so I strongly suspect that you would get away
with it, and could in any case claim that you thought it was working.
Officially from this year you need mode S to travel anywhere in Europe,
although most countries including France, have not yet ratified the new
regulations. I have no VAT certificate and am not awareof the need to have
one. The PFA quotes schedule 11 of the ANO saying that the following
documents should be carried on international flights:
Certificate of registration
Permit to Fly & Certificate of Validity
Aircraft Radio License
Flight crew Licenses
Procedures to follow if intercepted
It has always seemed wise to me to take a copy of your insurance certificate
and also a noise certificate if you have one. Regards, David Joyce

David,
We are thinking about going to Letouquet this weekend (weather permitting)
but are a little concerned about VAT certificates etc as we do not hold
such a document - any thoughts? also our Transponder is not currently
functioning, and it is some time since I have been, do you know if one is
mandatory?
Thanks for any words of wisdom.
Tony.

The trip to Le Touquet usually organised by theEuropa Club isn't happening
this year, so I am opening the Gloucester Strut Le Touquet trip to anyone
in
the Europa fraternity who may be interested. A detailed briefing sheet is
available which aims to provide anyone who has yet to cross the Channel
with
all the information needed to be able to face it with confidence. I can
also
probably (depending a bit on where the plane originates) arrange for me or
someone to fly in loose formation with any 'Channel Virgin' who would
welcome that sort of support. Experienced travellers are of course also
welcome to come for the fun of it or to pick up some wine or a French tarte!
The Strut trip will start from Gloucester or thereabouts and aim to
be in Le Touquet by 12.30 local time (11.30 BST). There we normally rent
bikes at the airfield and trundle gently into town for a fine Seafood lunch.
Anyone potentially interested please contact me off forum and I
will send full briefing details. Regards, David Joyce, G-XSDJ
