Avignon-Provence airport (LFMV) brings together on one site everything a future airline pilot needs:
- A real controlled airport: control tower, ATIS, IFR and VFR traffic, customs. From the very first flights, students practise the radio work and procedures of a real airport.
- A 1,880 m paved runway and two grass runways: plenty of variety to train on different runway types.
- Instrument approaches (RNP) for IFR training without leaving base.
- Moderate traffic: more time flying, less time waiting on the ground.
- Favourable weather for much of the year: steady progress, with few cancelled flights.
- Varied airspace between sea and mountains: ideal for navigation flights.
- A real campus, everything in one place: equipped classrooms, FNPT2 simulator, fleet and maintenance, student housing and catering. Just like a university campus, everything is within walking distance, no car needed.
- Easy to reach: close to Avignon TGV high-speed train station and to international airports.
