Takeoff description
North East facing launch 4.5 kms by rough road above the village of Yuscaran, Honduras. Challenging, compact launch with fence. Its necessary to have 12-20km wind or cycles to launch easily. Approx 650 meters of free elevation with launch at 1450 mtrs above sea level. Dry season is late Feb-end of May with high cloud base and combination of mountain thermal and flatland flights. 60+kms flights to date. No one has ever flown a hanglider here but the launch looks suitable to me and the El Llano landing field is also suitable.
