A visit to his small aerodrome, just to the south of Bordeaux Merignac,
Not so much interested in the aeroplanes as the restaurant.
We had a great flight down, CAVOK and crystal clear, asking for and given transit right over the top of Merignac at 1500'
The restaurant was fabulous, with a fine table on the terrace with full view of the goings on.
As usual with French aerodromes, no landing fee and no bureaucracy.
Similar route back to the Vendéé but this time down at grape level to check out the vineyards and chateaux of the Medoc.
An excellent day.
