Takeoff description
Nice and easy take off located in a grassy land surrounded with a fence where there is a house. Best way to get there is with the local pilots. Alternatively, take a jeep in the main park. The jeep will leave you a 5 minutes (steep) walk from the take off. Be aware that the jeeps are usually crammed so don't expect a very comfortable ride.
