The Albanian Riviera has truly been a revelation. It’s indeed a great honour, privilege & a huge blessing to come upon a flying site that satisfies you in innumerable ways. I am personally bowled over by Vlorë on the Albanian coast and after exploring the Alps for over a decade, this could easily become one of my most favoured sites.
An amazingly easy & friendly launch that comfortably takes winds from South West to North West a huge range that offers great possibilities in varied conditions. Vlorë launch sits at around 700m AMSL, while nearby Llogara Pass rises to nearly 1000m AMSL. The views of the Adriatic & Ionian Seas are simply spectacular & breathtaking to say the least.
Perfect for APPI Level 03 Pilots & above, and exceptionally good for SIV Training. Land by the beach, jump straight into the sea for a refreshing swim after the flight, and head back up again for another unforgettable run.
A big shout out to the Aeroclub of Albania for this wonderful collaboration. Looking forward to creating some amazing memories here with our club pilots in the times ahead.
