Takeoff description
The lady running this private club has problems with foreigners. She is requiring to have a “ radio” for 3,5 minutes fly time. She refused to let us fly because we did not have radio with us. Ridiculous lady. Dont try here. - Mt.Jubuichi (500m above sea level.) 40m wide by 150m long south-east to south-west wind is best. - Mt.Takatsumuji (700m above sea level.) westward 60m wide by 25m long.eastward 60m wide by 25m long. Both site can drive right up to the takeoff.
