The aero club is based on Muret-Lherm (LFBR) airfield. This airfield was only a grass strip in the fifties. Since then, many things have changed.

Opened to public air traffic in 1955, most of tourism aircraft can now utilize the runway, given the fact that they respect specific procedures related to airfield infrastructures.

The paved runway was built in 1971.

Since 1990, many technical improvements have been done to the field:

• The paved runway length has been increased to 1,100 meters allowing twin engines aircraft to operate
• Night flight equipment

The maintenance is ensured by Muret municipality. Apart from the paved runway, there are also two unpaved runways (grass). One is 825 x 50 m for light aircrafts, and the second one is 300 x 40 m for microlights.

There are four ways to fly for the PAX division:

• Scheduled flights
• Event flights
• Free PAX flights
• Free Littoral flights

Scheduled flights

You can choose to book or not your flight, but for some cases, booking may be mandatory. Once the flight has been done, you need to fill in a PIREP with the flight number, and, when applicable, the booking number that was given to you at the time of the booking.

Event flights

Event flights are flights that organized for some specific occasion. A dedicated flight number will be allocated and shared during the briefing of the flight. Here again, a booking may be mandatory prior to the flight.

Free PAX flights

Free PAX flights are all the flights that are neither a schedule flight, nor an event flight. However, they must link two airports that are used by the division. They will get the flight number LAP000.

Free Littoral flights

Similarly with other divisions of the company, it is possible to make a free flight between two airports, with at least one of them is not used by the division. The flight number for those flights is LAL000.

Please note that our objective is not to restrain your passion, however, only PIREPs that are filed on our website will be added to your flight log, thus contributing to your future promotions within Littoral Airlines.

Wishing you some pleasant flights under the flag of the PAX division.

Organization

The way of working of the division consists in the booking of a flight with a related freight quantity. It can be done either with a flight from one of the weekly event I propose, or from the regular flight list. The pilot is free to choose which flight he wants to do.

Flight scan be done whenever the pilot wants. However, once the booking is made, the flight has to be done within 48 hours. After 48 hours, the booking will be automatically canceled. In this case, the pilot is still free to renew his booking(s). Keep in mind that events are refreshed every week, so any booking which will not be completed when the event is closed will be totally canceled.

Another important thing to bear in mind is that the principle of the division is to carry some freight to a destination (from or to one of the hub). For the inbound flight, the pilot carries the freight according to the capacity of its aircraft. However, for the return flight, this is an empty flight allowing to bring back the aircraft to the hub. No freight is supposed to be carried. Although return flight are highly recommended, they are not mandatory. When doing the booking of the return flights, the mention freight quantity should be 0 kg. In some cases, it may be necessary to bring back some freight (for events), but this will be clearly mentioned in the event briefing.

Every week, a cargo event based on some real event will be proposed to pilots. All articles are accessible on this website (Divisions => Cargo=> Events).
