Kjosås, Øystese Kjosås is located on the Kjosås farm above Øystese center. There is a paved road leading directly to the launch site. Landing The designated landing area is at Mo, Øystese, on cultivated land directly below the Kjosås launch. This landing area has restrictions when the grass is tall. If in doubt, contact the landowner who lives in the house marked on the map. Always be considerate and land in a way that minimizes trampling the grass. Please pack your wing at the edge or outside the grass field. The distance from the launch site is 0.7 km. Access From Øystese center, drive to Mo. At Mo, follow the signs to Kjosås and continue until you see a windsock/streamer on the right side. This is the launch site. Park in a way that does not obstruct other vehicles. Flying The launch faces southeast, but if the main wind is weak, the sea breeze often turns and aligns directly with the launch. Excellent soaring conditions in summer. Best thermals from March to May. Special rules apply here as both the launch and landing are on cultivated land. Pilots must pay a fee of 20 kroner per flight. A payment box is set up at the launch. Launch only in front of the barn and chicken coop. There is also an upper launch at Kjosås. To reach it, continue driving on the road through a private yard. The road becomes private, so be mindful of the number of cars and parking. Note: It is not allowed to launch directly in front of the residential house (lower launch). Avoid noise and disturbances for the residents. Courses and events must be arranged in advance. When launching from the lower start, be airborne before reaching the road, as it creates turbulence in the launch path.
