Description
The 'Alter Steinbruch' site in Lindenfels, Germany, is a popular local soaring spot, though cross-country flights are rare. The take-off height is 504 meters with a height difference of 270 meters. This site is primarily used by experienced A-license pilots due to its challenging nature, and an orientation session is mandatory. In 2009, significant improvements were made, including the construction of an earth ramp, allowing for higher take-offs from the clearing. Pilots must ensure they have enough altitude to clear the road below.
Tandem flights are only permitted by trained pilots. On weekends, a shuttle bus operates from the landing zone to the take-off point. The practice slope in Lindenfels is easier to fly.
Pilots must pay a fee at the practice slope, either at the information box in the club bus or to a club member. Due to the demanding nature of the quarry take-off site, participation in a "tree rescue course" is required. Pilots must carry a sling, a rescue rope, and a descent carabiner.
Key regulations include:
- Minimizing environmental impact.
- Flight operations end at 19:00.
- Allowing gliders from other regions and flight schools.
The main flying site is located above the old quarry, accessible by foot or the club bus. The landing zone is north of the road from Lindenfels to Schlierbach, with a dedicated practice slope featuring an 80-meter height difference.
Parking is available at "Sauwaad" near the swimming pool and limited spaces at the riding hall. The "Sauwaad" parking is a 10-minute walk from the take-off site, with the option to join the club bus if available.
The bus typically operates from 12:00 on days with south wind. For regular updates on flying activities in Lindenfels, subscribing to the newsletter is recommended.
The DHV mandates a thorough orientation for this site, which must be conducted by a board member or authorized club member. Tandem pilots require a special orientation. The emergency landing zone is located at the quarry near the grill hut, and it is advisable to inspect it before take-off due to potential obstacles.
