Welcome to your AOPA Luxembourg Newsletter. We hope that you have had a fanstastic start to the new year! We had a few cold, clear, crisp days - hopefully you were able to get up in the skies! If not, no worries we have plenty of events coming up to give you more opportunitties to meet up, fly, and enjoy.

We've had a busy January, preparing AOPA's annual events and the soon to be released Yearbook.

Many may be wondering about the annual Safety Seminar that usually takes places in early February. This year the event has been moved to Saturday, March 22nd due to scheduling issues. Our Ordinary General Assembly will also take place in March, on Saturday the 8th, we hope to see many of you there.

Enjoy!

Cristina and Reinhard

Save the Date: AOPA Nav Refresher June 14th!

 

Back by popular demand - it's our annual Nav Refresher - open to all pilots!

This year we will fly to Seppe/Breda (EHSP) and to Cambrai (LFYG).

What better way to spend a Saturday than in the skies with other pilots while refreshing your flying skills?! This is a great opportunity to brush up on flight preparation, weather planning and safety.

This is a 3-legged cross border flight where each pilot flies one leg of the journey. One stop even includes lunch! The route will be unveiled shortly.

AOPA will handle booking club panes in advance - so mark your calendars and stay tuned! A sign up form will be sent out soon. Since this is open to all pilots, please share this with anyone you know who may be interested. 

In the meantime if you have any questions, reach out to Etienne at etienne.haumont@aopa.lu

The more the merrier!

DAC Airsafety Bulletin : Model Aircraft near ELLX VFR Routes

 

WA significant update has been made by the DAC in the latest airsafety bulletin ASB 2025/01 authorizing a new site for model airplanes on the Lintgen plateau. The site will allow model aircraft to fly up to 1,000 feet AGL, meaning about 2,300 feet MSL. The location of this site is crucial as it lies between Mersa and Carli.

For more information read our article on the website here.
