Takeoff description

Not well maintained. Good ground handling skill is of essence/very important! The big advantage with Rondebosh is - it has takeoffs in just about any wind direction apart of N-W. (There is actually a N-W takeoff too, but flying in that wind is close to impossible.) Takeoff is basically anywhere you can find a clean patch of ground,usually halfway up the hill.
