Site briefing
Planning information for Les Platons HG
Take-off
Northerly. If one takes off with 010 degrees wind, a very large part of the North Coast can be soared. Only take off if the forecast suggests the wind will stay soarable owing to negligible bottom landings on Jersey's North coast
Landing
Top landable. Very rocky (boulders!) narrow beach below. Very not recommended for hang gliders. Ok for paragliders. Beach 'next door' at Bonne Nuit is better but still not recommended for HGs. Fly on the wall'able for HGs
Access and parking
Head for the aerials down a dirt track. Take off is to the East of the aerials.
Flight rules
150 ft ATO (!)
