Take-off description
Near the top of the mountain, from the road, right below the radio masts
Getting there
From Accra, head to Tema, turn Left towards Akosombo at roundabout, turn right to Asutsuare after passing Shai Hills Reserve, drive until hill is on your right, and you are entering a lightly populated area, finding the road up is tricky, as it is rarely used, 4x4 essential, can only drive 70% of the way to the top, rest on foot. Its also possible to walk up from the bottom along the same route.
Weather
Sea Breeze kicks in around mid day, and often gets strong and stable, so launch before that and ride the sea breeze convergence inland.
Rules / airspace
Call to KIA tower required before flight, and again after flying to close flight opperations
