(be sure to check out their web site, it is beautiful, also)
This is an incredible guide book to flying in the Alps (not all of Europe, as it
doesn't include Montecucco, for example). A guide to all the launches and
landing zones. What the flying is like, what to watch out for, where to go on
cross country flights, how to get there, where to meet up, the weather sites,
nearby flying sites, where to stay, where to eat.
It is a beautiful book (a real reason for books at all), with glossy pages,
great type, and gorgeous pictures. Also includes ads for local businesses at the
sites. This is very helpful.
It is paraglider pilot oriented, but there is plenty if information for hang
glider pilots. Plenty of cautions about flying at Fiesch, which is great to see
as it shows that the author was interested in telling the truth.
This is a book that any pilots who want to fly in the Alps must have.
It is available in PDF (with all the links) and stripped down eBook versions
also.
