Launch

High mountain launch, hence PP3. The top is big enough to launch in most directions, but primarily towards W, NW, N, NE and E, so the landing is near the road. Some wind onto the top is recommended.

NNEENW PG You can launch in all directions from the top, but primarily towards W, NW, N, NE and E so the landing is near the road.
SE SPG SPG has launched towards SE just southwest of the top. It is probably possible to take off from several sides of the mountain.

Landing

Land on grass down by the road, northeast of the top by the sea. The landing suits both PG and SPG. Clear it with the farmer before you land, and check the landing beforehand with regard to power lines.

Always check the landing before you fly. If you land in a field, it must be agreed with the farmer, and the grass must not be tall.
