Take-off description
On a field, rather clean (april 2007). A big rock separates the takeoff in two sectors, one rather West, the other more North-West.
Getting there
Take the road that goes straight up at the East exit of Beida village, to the Amman/Shawbak road, then, after a couple of km., just 50m. before road does a sharp turn on the left, take a track on another couple of km. The track starts with about 200m with cement, then dust. The take off will be on your right.
Comments
Very easy site (TO+LZ), used for initiation flights, can be useful with some light north wind, when other takeoffs of the Beida bowl are crosswind. Beside, the way up with car is not so long and the track is not too difficult (april 2007)
