I couldn't spot the strip, even at touchdown.

There is a boom attached to the wingtip, you can just see it in a take-off part of the video. I would say one only lands there on a calm day!

Yes, you can see the boom from the shadow and the view from the other side. What bugs me is you (I!) can't see it attached to the wing tip

Crazy or what? No-way would I like to fly THAT close to the mountains, must have been a good day without too much wind but even that could catch out the unwary. :worried:

Mind you, perfect for practicing landings and take-offs before trying Courchevel Airport for real!! :lol:
