Any flying in the Alps is awesome!

If you are an experienced mountain pilot, familiar with winch launching
then I would agree with Justin that la Motte would be a great place to fly
from. (I must try it myself some time)

I have been flying from St Auban several weeks each year for the past 6
years.
It differs from clubs in that it is purely a mountain flying school They
have a number of highly experienced instructors some of whom have flown in
that area for the past 30+years- They KNOW the best places to fly! They
also have a fantastic fleet of single and 2 seat gliders. They are mainly
an aerotow organisation but did purchase winches 2 years ago which are
great if the wind is a northerly to get onto the nearest ridge

There is accommodation on site, it's not 5* but is better than most gliding
clubs offer. There is also a canteen on site which again is fairly basic.
From the airfield you can walk to the nearest shops for the essential which
you certainly can't do from La Motte.

I have always found the team there to be extremely friendly and helpful.
Full briefings are carried out daily usually in English and French.

You pays you money and make your choice!

Feel free to mail me directly for any further info. I'm booked in 8th of
July.
