Tatoi Airport lies north of Athens in the historic region of Decelea, a Hellenic Air Force base that has operated since 1918 and today shares its single runway with several long-established Attic aeroclubs. Its most distinctive feature for a visiting sim pilot is the Hellenic Air Force Museum on the field, alongside static exhibits such as a Republic F-84F Thunderstreak near the main gate.
Tatoi Airport, identified by ICAO code LGTT, is a public/military aerodrome at Tatoi in Decelea, Attica, owned and operated by the Hellenic Air Force. It began operations in 1918 and today combines a military presence with civilian gliding and flying club activity, making it an interesting mixed-use destination for VFR pilots exploring the airspace north of Athens. The Hellenic Air Force Museum, with its collection of historic aircraft, is situated on the airfield itself.
The airfield sits north of Athens in the district of Decelea, Attica. It lies within reach of the wider Athens airspace environment, though the sources reviewed do not specify the airspace classification or detailed boundaries applicable to LGTT.
Tatoi has a single physical runway, 03/21, surfaced in asphalt and lit. Runway 03 is 5,907 feet long and Runway 21 is 5,712 feet long. There is no ILS available at the field.
Approach services are provided as ATHINAI APP on 119.1 MHz, and the tower operates on 118.5 MHz.
Tatoi Airport began operating in 1918, towards the end of the First World War. It has long been used by the Hellenic Air Force, and its grounds now host the Hellenic Air Force Museum, which displays a range of historic aircraft, including a Republic F-84F Thunderstreak on static display near the central gate. The airfield has also served as home to numerous Attic aeroclubs over the years. On 27 December 1991, a Hellenic Air Force Douglas C-47B (serial KK171) was damaged beyond repair in an accident at Tatoi Air Base, with one of the six crew members killed.
Tatoi remains an active Hellenic Air Force base and is also home to several civilian aeroclubs, including the Athens Gliding Club, Dekeleia Aeroclub, Athens Aeroclub, and Mesogeion Aeroclub, alongside other aeroclubs from across Attica that have used the field. The on-site Hellenic Air Force Museum is a notable feature for visitors. Given its military ownership and mixed operational status, pilots should expect that prior permission is required before flying in.
