Saint-Nazaire-Montoir Airport (LFRZ) lies in Loire-Atlantique on the northern side of the Loire estuary, close to Montoir-de-Bretagne and just north-east of Saint-Nazaire. It offers a single long, lit hard-surfaced runway and controlled airport services, making it a straightforward destination for pilots operating in the region under Nantes Approach and Saint-Nazaire Tower.
Saint-Nazaire-Montoir Airport, identified by the ICAO code LFRZ and IATA code SNR, is a medium-sized aerodrome serving the Saint-Nazaire/Montoir area of Pays de la Loire. It is built around a single, substantial runway of nearly 7900 feet, and the field supports scheduled airline movements as well as general aviation traffic, giving a visiting simulator pilot a real mix of operations to plan around.
The airport sits at coordinates 47.3106 N, 2.1567 W, at an elevation of 10 feet, on the north bank of the Loire estuary near the town of Montoir-de-Bretagne, north-east of Saint-Nazaire itself. Traffic in the area is worked by Nantes Approach before being handed to the local tower for the airfield itself.
The airfield has one physical runway, 07/25, with a hard surface measuring 7883 feet in length. Both directions are lit, though there is no ILS available at the field, so any instrument approach flying must rely on other means of guidance.
Inbound and outbound traffic is handled on two frequencies: Nantes Approach on 130.275 MHz, and Saint Nazaire Tower on 118.95 MHz. There is no ILS at LFRZ, so pilots should plan for a visual or non-precision arrival.
Saint-Nazaire-Montoir is classed as a medium airport handling scheduled airline services alongside general aviation movements, with a single long, lit runway well suited to a range of aircraft types.
