Site Safety Record:

Throughout this region are many large areas suitable for landing (see map of the competition) with unrestricted access. This enables safe flying with easy access for Rescu eand Emergency Services if necessary. Thermals are usually large and smooth, rarely exceeding more than 3 or 4 m/s in strength. Being relatively flat, this flying area suffers little in terms of areas of rotar, with the exception of the west face of Ibituruna Peak. Depending on the meteorological conditions of the day tasks are set to intentionally avoid the return flight passing close by the vicinity of Ibituruna.

7 – MAPS AND COORDINATES



The coordinates are the same as those usedin recent competitions, in quantity and disposition through houtthe region. These enable the completion of a variety of safe tasks.
