Takeoff description
Leave the A8 at La Turbie, and follow the signs for the Monte Carlo golf club. Turn right at the Monte-Carlo radio antennae. Parking is limited (10 places) and hitching back up for a vehicle difficult. It makes sense to use the navette (euro1), which leaves from the car park opposite the train station (close to the landing area) between 10am and 4pm (10am, 11.15, 14.00 15.15 - only Oct-April). BEWARE OF FLYING RESTRICTIONS ( NOTAM, ZIT MENTON) ALWAYS CHECK Roquebrunailes website or fb BEFORE TAKING OFF. If you see white waves on the see, just don't take off or if you are already flying, go to the landing quick.
