Pilot comments
It's a particular takeoff because it's not really high from the valley, just 200 meters. Soaring to the southern part of the 'Castelmauro - Northern' takeoff let you face through the valley, that have super thermal potential (records span from 3500 to '1 time in the life' 4100 mt). From here, we can go everywhere around molise. It's the most easier takeoff of all.
