Tips

The aircraft take off with the help of cable winches, so there are several plastic cables 4.6 mm thick across the field, which are pulled in at over 100 km/h when taking off. They are difficult to see in the grass and take off from the ground with the glider! Likewise, in special situations, aircraft can touch down on the airfield outside the designated runway at any time.
That's why the following applies here: Do not enter the premises under any circumstances!
Otherwise you are putting other people in danger! So must e.g. B. the starting process may be aborted with an increased risk for the occupants of the glider. A landing aircraft may be forced to perform risky maneuvers. That's why dogs are required to be kept on a leash and children are required to be supervised here too! No spectator, child or dog is allowed to walk onto the airfield!
“For these reasons, ignoring the safety instructions poses an acute danger to life!”

The sailors only start when the weather forecast is very good! When you see them you can be pretty sure it won't rain
