FLYSITES

- Long Reef SE

DESCRIPTION

A grassy area part way along the walking track on the southern face. The grassed area is at best level and at worst slopes backwards away from the ridge. In order to launch you will need to be a few steps down the steep 'goat track' that goes directly over the edge. There is space for only one pilot at a time. If other pilots are present, they can hold your leading edge up which will simplify things, although experienced pilots regularly launch here un-aided. Because the hill rises towards the east, pilots flying eastwards tend to be lower and 'hug' the cliff those flying west are usually higher and often pass out to sea. This is opposite to the normal right of way rules but the pattern helps everyone to stay up.
