Takeoff description
Takeoff is on a small cliff behind a beach. It's exposure is South-South-East, exactly in front of Elba Island. It's a tricky takeoff because there are bushes from left to right and on top, so the operating space is reduced to a minimum. However it can be flown without much stress if you takeoff on the lower part.
