Site briefing
thermo-dynamique, NNO, déniv. 120 m, site NON OFFICIEL, dist. Paris 150 km Coordonnées GPS : Déco 49°23'15'N - 00°50'53'E Comment y aller : De Paris, rejoindre l'autoroute A13 direction Rouen sur 125 km, puis prendre la D313, puis la D313E, puis la D91 jusqu'à Barneville-sur-Seine. Accès : rive gauche de la Seine, face à Duclair.
There are two starting directions: 30° has a nice, long, shallow and well maintained meadow but (!) this meadow is surrounded by high trees. the only obvious way out is a tiny gap at the bottom at ~35°. 330° has no slope at all. a flat top of great meadow grass abruptly turns into a cliff full of nettles. Due to the form of the neighboring slopes all NW winds are channeled up that cliff.
The Landing at 49°23'29' (49.3915)N; 0°51'7' (0.8522)E is badly overgrown and tiny. Also the neighbors appear to love barbed wire, which they spread generously along the river path. The local map states an auxiliary 'atterisage delta' (49.392013, 0.860188). well, I suggest everybody should have a look into that one. otherwise, if the water is low, the banks are wide - and rocky. The path to the landing leaves the main street about 150m east of the start. it's a long, steep path but - if the upper gate is open - passable for cars.
GPS finds the starting position quite well. the rest is easy. No official access to the current landing. 'atterisage delta' only accessible via Yville sur Seine.
Description : Site en bord de Seine, réservé aux pilotes confirmés. Atterro au sommet conseillé. La marée basse permet un atterrissage plus grand sur les bords de Seine.
