NEW U.K. IMMIGRATION REQUIREMENTS FOR GENERAL AVIATION
Revised regulations for crew and passengers on all general aviation flights entering or leaving UK, were introduced on 6 April 2024.
This requires lists of all persons on board such flights to be notified in advance using the UK government internet website or approved alternative software. Other previous ways of notification are to cease. See
https://www.legislation.gov.uk/uksi/2024/470/contents/made
Events were verified at the time of inclusion but are subject to short-notice rescheduling or cancellation. Always check.
Several events in France have appeared on French listings but with no direct website link quoted. Any event listed without a website link needs verifying
If planning an overseas visit, check national travel restrictions, including those due to Brexit and Covid, en route, on arrival and on returning to UK.
Following Brexit, if planning to fly abroad from the UK in a light aircraft check revised pilot licencing and aircraft certification requirements. Also changes to Customs & Immigration clearance procedures and availability.
Between late July and early September 2004, the Paris Olympic and Paralympic games are likely to result in major restrictions on flying in the greater Paris area. Details awaited - Check French Notams.
If planning to drive abroad, check motoring organization websites for regulations. Some countries including France, now have a 70kph (40mph) blanket limit on single-carriageway roads. Check for vehicle emission control zones around major cities. These now exist in most European countries and the number of them is increasing each year. France requires purchase of an emission status sticker, for all vehicles including electrics, covering all of their zones.
