Pilot Comments by Andreas

• Spectacular approaches, both IFR and VFR (Waterfall arrival / departure). Gorgeous nature.
• Moderate to high fees (C510, MTOM 3,922 kg, 3 nights: total 500 EUR). Excellent service.
• PPR required via handling@fae.fo.
• Slot required, GCR turnaround (!) format. Best done via tool on www.airportccordination.com.
• Tax forms + GENDEC required, both for arrival and departure. See homepage. Forms T27, T30 + T38. T27 Crew List must include all PAX.
• Self briefing (familiarisation program) required (see AIP and homepage).
• JET-A1 was 1,70 EUR/l including all taxes. Fuel release vie World Fuel Services called for 2,95 EUR/l, which is a rare occasion where we opted against a fuel release.
• Always have enough fuel for deviation. Rapid changes in ceiling, visibility and winds can require deviation.

Johannes wrote a good summary.
Supplementary information:
- ATC does a great job handling training flights (IFR and VFR), airline traffic and business jets on a single runway. Busy airport.
- rental cars at main terminal (1.8 km by foot or taxi)
- railway at main terminal (1.8 km …)
- handling friendly + efficient, nice FBO, but pretty expensive
- landing, handling + parking for one day, up to 4,000 kg MTOM: 500 EUR

2026-07:
- handling mandatory (Dassault); they coordinate slots, too
- landing, parking, handling, slots for C510, MTOM 3,922 kg: 800 CHF; this prevents a 5 star rating
- taxi ready upon arrival when called after landing via FBO frequency (131.430)
- very nice FBO, excellent + quick service
- approach speed of 160 KIAS until 4 NM desired; confirmation required for slot allocation; reasons: busy airport, one runway, long final approaches in both directions
- ATC is doing a great job there handling this amount of traffic there
- definitely not a destination for IFR training
- prepare your vacating taxiway (stated in published procedures)

Very nice airport with spectacular scenic approach.
Very nice island.

Y and Z flight plans:
Excellent cooperation between local AFIS (Marina di Campo Information) and Rome Radar. IFR details by AFIS on start-up.

Landing fees (C510, MTOM 3921 kg): 160 EUR + RFFS Cat 3: 2 x 150 EUR = 300 EUR;
C510 is 12.36 m long. For any aircraft with a length of 12.00 m or above: RFFS Cat 3 and PPR required (48 h). 2 x 150 EUR. No exceptions.
Friendly + motivated staff.

Very nice island.
Rental car: Elba by car (elbabycar.it) worked fine.
