Takeoff description
a small hill just in front of the Leuchtenburg - a castle situated above the town of Kahla. the takeoff is a nice grassy plateau inclined towards southwest, the takeoff direction, but it drops of steeply - enough room to start your wing comfortably even in nil wind though! beware of winds coming from southerly directions: at the landing zone you will almost certainly encounter shear winds and rotor.
