Bunch of us are heading for Kerry on the 16th of September of a days flying. Info here on flying sites, wind directions etc

 

Right guys, it's all coming together now for the 16/09/2007!

Brian and I have doing doing further research on venues (I know, its a really, really tough job, but someone.....!), and we now have lined up a fantastic, tried and tested slope for every wind direction except vertical!  They are as follows:

Mweelin (478m): SW, S, SE.

Rossbeigh Hill (274m): NW, N, NNE

Seefin Mountain, Glenbeigh (43m): NE, E

Carrahane Strand, Ardfert (17m): West.


Reserve West slope: White Strand, Rossbeigh Beach, Glenbeigh.


Meeting places will have to be determined closer to the date, depending on what Windguru (http://www.windguru.cz/int/index.php?sc=47753) tells us (use "Inch Strand" spot for Glenbeigh area, "Banna Beach" for Ardfert area).

Suggested meeting spots are as follows:

West wind: Tralee, outside MacDonalds as you come in from the Limerick/Castleisland side.

NW to E: Glenbeigh, outside the Londis petrol station/food store, last business on the right just before you leave town for Kells/Caherciveen (and just before the right turn that goes down to Rossbeigh beach).

SE to SW: Ballyvourney, Cork, in parking lot behind that pub/shop on the north side of the road, which is also the last business on the right side of the road before you leave town for Killarney (name to follow - this is also a great spot for take-aways, or for relaxing afterwards!).

It would be best to swop phone numbers, my mobile no. is: 087 929 7071.

PlLease feel free to suggest alternative arrangements!

Chris
