Civil Airfield Schärding Suben (LOLS)

Schärding-Suben (LOLS) offers a friendly, welcoming atmosphere with consistently helpful staff and efficient tower service. The airfield features an 800 m asphalt runway suitable for general aviation, with straightforward approaches; however, from the north the field can be hard to spot, and on short final to runway 14, overflight of nearby settlements should be minimized. On final to 32, trees and slightly sloping terrain require attention. Procedures for customs and immigration are described as unbureaucratic and flexible, with data sometimes accepted by phone or email using a form from the website; see AIP/NOTAM for details.

Landing fees are moderate. Example: landing fee about €20. Fuel (Avgas, Mogas, Jet-A) is available at competitive prices. The on-field restaurant is repeatedly praised for quality and service. Accommodation is available on site at Villa Patrick with basic rooms and direct aircraft parking; Example: accommodation about €20 per night.

Schärding town lies 7–8.5 km from the airfield; travel options include a 15-minute taxi ride or a 1.5-hour walk along the river Inn. Car hire is possible via a local dealer. For flight plan closure, proactively request assistance from the flight director if needed.

Overall, LOLS is well-suited for non-commercial GA pilots seeking an efficient fuel stop, meal break, or overnight stay near the Austrian-German border.
