Landing:
|
The LZ is used for static towing of hang gliders so watch out on approach.
|
|
Emergency landing:
|
Emergency bail-outs are everywhere in the front of launch. You
can land anywhere in an emergency situation. All of the bail
outs are as big as the LZ. 53 acres of unobstructed, clean incoming air.
This is a real easy site to fly. Hang 1 pilots take their first mountain
flights from there, so experienced pilots would not have a problem.
