Christmas in Bitterwasser – at 33°C and glorious sunshine
In Europe Christmas is usually associated with cold temperatures, early sunsets and, in the best case scenario, snow. In Bitterwasser, the world looks very different.
Heading into the wind
The pan has a diameter of 3 kilometers and is therefore very pleasant for take-offs and landings. Instead of runways, the pan contains 8 different landing directions. This means you can always align the glider perfectly with the wind.
And even if the pan is wet, there are 2 alternative runways at the hangar.
This means that there are no complications even in the evening when there is a lot of landing activity, and a regulated take-off procedure is also ensured in the morning.
