GPS :
Altitude : 1 500 m ASL (of course !)
Access : This site take place above La Chaloupe village. Take the same road as to reach Colimaçons site and keep going towards La Chaloupe. Once at the village, take Vaudeville road on the left, continue still 6 km up to a concrete road and follow it. On the right-hand side of the road a panel indicates the site. After 5 minutes walk in the meadows, you are there.
Landing : Landing : As for the 800 or the 1 400 takeoff, landing can be done at Ferme Corail after a magnificent flight over the lagoon.
Going there : na.
Comments : Flight plan : Flying start over La Chaloupe village, then, either quite right towards the sea, or hang up by stealing more from the relief to reach the site of the 800. Indeed, you have numerous other crossing possibilities.
Weather hazards : Aerology : The ennuagement may be very fast, with cloud cover between 900m and 1 200m. Take off early, before clouds form to avoid any surprise. Be careful, the risks are the same that for Colimaçons site : everything is quiet at the takeoff, but it can have a lot of wind on the landing ground near the sea. Please, always watch the sea before taking off to be sure that there is no strong wind on the beach.
