GA – Southampton

I was planning on flying down to Southampton in a PA28 in a month or so. Does anyone know if Southampton will accept GA Aircraft. I have tried checking the the AIS pages, but my PC won’t open Adobe documents at the moment…

I stopped off there a couple of weeks ago, returning to the UK.

There was a Notam regarding PPR and booking. I phoned from Bordeaux and flew direct. Landing fee was about £19 (RV-4) and 100LL available at £1.09/litre.

No problems at all, they were very helpful.

Longer stay parking may be an issue, but it’s probably worth giving them a call to find out.

Popham’s a great airfield, but if you want to go to Southampton……

They are not very welcoming. You might be better to fly to Popham and then get the train the rest of the way.

They seem to having read the textual data from the AIP:
