Tower's Flight Restrictions
Every so often it's helpful to review our club's Forest Service permit requirements for the Tower's Launch. Historically our main concerns are centered around the understanding that our permit requires us to operate without flying in or above the 1/2 mile wide corridor (canyon) just south the Camp 9 Heliport facility on the ridge top as shown in the photo.
