Hi,

I am sure the jets and powered traffic are happy without the fear of being
sawn in half by winch wire.


No jets at my home field, but we get along fine with other power traffic,
including lots of helicopters (military), banner towing and even skydiving.
At peak times three winches are in operation with two wires each, each
belonging to a different club.

It really is a matter of coordination.

Two answer the original question: We pay 3EUR for about 500m AGL.

Ciao, MM
