Takeoff description
Take off is on club leased land and so to speak private. No flying without previously notifying the operator. The take off is just below the old city walls with restaurants and there are usually many people watching. The take off is steep and narrow, although big enough to lay out two gliders next to each other. Only one can launch at the time. Please make sure you do not fly too close to buildings and people. Avoid flying directly over buildings and keep flying in front of the old town rather than above. Due to great public exposure pilots are asked to fly conservatively.
