FLYSITES

- Mt Greylock

DESCRIPTION

Landing: the bailout LZ is located about 2000ft below launch with about a 2:1 glide. Be attentive to wind and obstacles while setting up your approach. The field is surrounded by tall trees and power lines. Hang gliders may need all of its length. You can break down or fold up in the shade of the big tree on top of the small hill. The main landing zone is not visible from launch due to another mountain obstructing the view. It is about 3000ft lower than launch located about 4 miles northeast just off of Route 8 at The Range. The Range is a golf driving range which also has miniature golf and batting cages. Before landing and still about 500ft above the LZ, yell down to let everyone know you are about to land. They will stop hitting golf balls to allow you room to land. Try to land off to the side if possible. If you need to land in the middle of the field, then do so and put safety first. As soon as you land, pick up your glider and carry it off to the side quickly so The Range customers can go back to hitting their golf balls. You can break down and fold up your glider under the building. The Range does sell cold soda and ice cream.
