French Requirement for FLARM and Anti-Collision Markings
|
|
The BGA has been advised by two well-known professional CFI's at clubs in the Southern French Alps that the FFVV requires that all
gliders flying in the Southern French Alps must be equipped with FLARM and anti-collision markings. The BGA recommends that before
travelling to France with their gliders, owners make enquiries with the club they are visiting in France to confirm the applicability
of this French mountain flying requirement.
