weather

Winds from NNW might create a rotor effect. Watch out for Lentics towards the north. If you see any you should avoid flying. Winds from SW can create turbulence on the landing.

access

Drive the R13 towards Hjelmeland, past the intersection down towards 'Fister'. Follow the road through a 180 degree turn and take off from the main road in the next sharp turn. There is a sign there pointing towards 'Eggjabø'. Take to the right after the first 'cattle guard'. Park the car on the left side of the road in the area where there are some farming equipment. We are allowed to only park one car there, but as long as the equipment isn't in use it is usually okay. Ask the farmer if in doubt. We are not allowed to drive closer to the farm, even for unloading the car. The animals might get stressed out by the traffic.
