Take offs and landings 30: Rhodes international Airport, Greece, Europe The thirty video from the Take offs and landings videoseries shows landing at Rhodes International Airport, Greece.
Greece, Rhodes Diagoras LGRP - Landing
Rhodes International Diagoras Airport (LGRP) - landing
When flying over the islands you need to be ready to land in the wind – side wind, turbulent wind, weak or strong – any. The mornings are usually a bit quieter but very rarely there is no wind at all. Most of the Greek island airports require mandatory handling. If you are an AOPA member then the cost is about 25 EUR per landing. If you are not then the price is somewhere between 100 – 140 EUR.
Especially in the Summer, Rhodos is a busy airport with a lot of charter flights. There is no requirement to apply for slots but during two of my three landings at this airport I had orbit for several minutes before I got permission to enter airport circuit at the base for runway 25. The centreline of runway 25/07 extends over the city and harbour so on departure I had wait some time for the TWR controller to be able to find a window within which I could spend some 5-10 minutes flying over the city to take pictures and videos of everything interesting.

Take offs and landings video series Our new video series „Take offs and landings“ will bring to you every Wednesday one video taken during a take off or landing during one of Flying Revue flight expeditions. Flying Revue expedition aircraft have landed already at more than 400 airports and airfields around the globe. For many reasons, not all our take offs and landings have been videoed. However, the number of videos which we have on file is permanently growing. So the new video series „Take offs and landings“ is very well stocked. You can watch these videos free of charge either just for your interest or as part of preparations for your own flight to some of the airports shown in these series.
