Comments
Training hill for Elementary Pilot training used by numerous local training schools. The landing area is not level with pot holes and such, which after having dried can be a cause of twisted ankles and such. There are also thorny shrubs in this area. Survey landing area before going for practice flights. Site can also be used to practice kiting, especially kiting up to the hill top. However, it may usually be too crowded to try that.
