Monte Cucco, Italy

Postby Keith Beebe » Tue Aug 09, 2016 6:47 pm

This is one of my favorite flights. Monte Cucco is in central Italy, in the Apennine Mountains. The entire mountain top is grass for several miles so you can launch and top land pretty much anywhere. In Italy the high mountain areas are used for grazing animals so the only risk is hitting some cow flop. Site is about 2000 agl, beautiful place. It was blowing about 20 mph but the contours are so smooth it was like beach air. Thought you might enjoy the views. :)
