Pilot comments
In summer en spring, strong thermals. North wind is treacherous.When the grass is high dont land in the landing zone. (spring) Dont park in the acces road, but in the parking before. When full, park at the edge of the road. Very sensitve site : close the gate, do NOT come with dogs if there are cattle in the takeoff field.
