The aircraft can use a hard landing strip of 900x30 meters and a grass landing strip of 900 x 80 meters, directed in the direction of dominant winds (05/23).
The ground is not approved for night flight, except some days for based planes.
A bar-restaurant is open every day except Tuesday, from 9 till 19 hours
Refuelling is possible every day (including Sunday and legal holidays) at the business hours (100 LL and Jet A1).
For nuisance reasons and strong traffic (gliders, microlighting, planes, helicopters), it is imperative to respect scrupulously the landing instructions and the circuit indicated on VAC map on Iser'ULM web site
Attention also with the vertical axis flies installations between 2000 and 5000 feet.
The overflight of all the zones located at the North of the motorway A41 Grenoble-Chambéry is strongly disadvised.
From or bound for all the Western sector, the overflight of Grenoble and its suburbs must be done "with a sufficient height compatible with takeoff and landing procedures": in the regular manner 5000 feet, minimum 3000 feet in approach or takeoff phase.
Good flight...
