Airport Grenoble Le Versoud (LFLG) IFR

LFLG offers a scenic GA-friendly airfield with both hard and grass runways, situated in a valley near Grenoble and surrounded by mountains, requiring good weather as there are no instrument approaches for general aviation. The airfield operates as an RMZ with a tower providing English and French radio service; controllers are described as efficient, sometimes sequencing multiple aircraft closely. VFR procedures are standard, with IFR procedures reserved for Civil Security only.

Parking is directly in front of the small terminal building housing the aeroclub (with lounge and internet), flight office (where landing and parking fees are paid), and a well-regarded restaurant serving local cuisine and draft beer. The aeroclub is welcoming, with helpful members. Example: landing and overnight parking about €20–€30. Fees are paid at the flight office during published hours; outside these times, staff may be available on call.

100LL and UL91 are available at the northeast apron; UL91 is accessible 24h by credit card, while 100LL (and Jet-A1 at the southwest apron) require a BP card for 24h access or can be dispensed by staff during posted hours. Credit card payment for fuel is possible in some cases; no Total card acceptance.

Ground transport options include Uber to Grenoble for about €40 or bus line 15 with a 1.5 km walk to the stop. Local hotels include simple options in Domène (with possible shuttle service) or chain hotels in Grenoble.

The airfield can be busy with gliders, helicopters, and sport aircraft; simultaneous operations on grass and asphalt runways occur, so vigilance is required during taxi and takeoff/landing. Procedures vary; see AIP/NOTAM.
