Check the landing before you fly Both the football pitch and Reine ytre havn should be checked before you fly. On the football pitch the goals may be in the way, and at the outer harbour you should look for obstacles.

Launch

The launch is on heather in steep terrain just left of the trail, seen from below. There is a cliff at the end of the heather, so you must have full control of your launch. Wind in makes the launch much easier. A technical launch because of the cliff, for PP3–PP4 or SPG4 with good launch technique.

Reinebringen is outside the club's area, so HPGT does not manage the site.

  • NNEESES PGSPG Launch on heather in steep terrain just left of the trail (seen from below).

Landing

Landing on the football pitch in Reine. Check the pitch before you fly. The goals may need to be moved to land safely.

Alternative landing at Reine ytre havn (the outer harbour). Check it too before you fly, so you can see any obstacles. There is also a landing about 1 km south along the road.

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.
