How big is the Europa community that fly in this demanding way? Is it just the elite team in the Alps that actually land on the mountains? Have often flown in mountainous areas. But I have found landing on the big slopes (with an instructor)challenging. The thought of executing in my own Europa mono particularly with its oversized propeller is too daunting, And as I dont routinely fly in mountainous areas have decided against pursuing further. I continue to have a great respect for those who have acquired the skill. Happy to receive a private message if there are licensing sensitivities.
