Being situated in a precious archaeological area, launch can only be reached on foot following the road of access to the ancient city of Norba.

Flight rules
We recommend to all the pilots to strongly refrain from flying in the plain beyond the vertical of the crossing of Doganella di Ninfa (41°36N; 12°50E) in order to avoid penetrating the airspace of the CTR of the Military Airport of Latina.
The repetition of these trespasses, recorded by the control tower, places us at the concrete risk of having our flight site closed down as the airport authorities have often threatened. In case of violation of this warning we will denounce the responsible pilot to the competent authorities. Please refer to ATZ & CTR maps on http://www.clubpr.it/siti-volo-flying-zones/
Forecasts are planning aids, not safety clearance. Check current observations, official airspace and NOTAM information, local rules and your own experience before every flight.
