However, the takeoffs are more unpredictable because of the possible inversion of the direction of the breeze. There are remedies to this phenomenon : Eithet you take off before the cirque warms up too much, either you take off when there is no breeze. This kind of condition allows you to acquire height and pass in transit towards the coast 8 km from there, or join the mountainous relief and see other skies. |
