CUMBRES DE LA SIERRA DE GUADARRAMA National Park.
Serious threat to "silent flight" over mountains in the Centre of Spain.

A bill for declaring National Park a big portion of the Summits of Sierra de Guadarrama is in progress in the Spanish Parliament, and poses a serious threat to the practitioners of "silent flight", traditional users of this airspace for over 30 years, who have lived with black vultures, storks, eagles or other raptors during that time period, sharing the same upcurrents with them, lap after lap, birds and gliders, in perfect harmony, just as happens in those other mountains where large birds nest, such as Pyrenees or Alps, among many others.

If no remedy, they will be forced to maintain 3,000 meters minimum height above the future Park!

Asociación de Volovelistas de España, AVE, (Spanish Soaring Pilots Association) is claiming and defending the rights of a group, ignored to date, stating that the new rule:
- Prohibits unreasonably overflying aircraft without engine.
- Presents an obvious lack of proportionality.
- Produces a high risk of negative socio-economic impact in the area of influence.

Let's work to get not compromised the continuity of this beautiful aeronautical discipline, fully respectful to the habitat of large birds, very well known all over Europe and the world, so that traditional and exceptional weather conditions area can still be "silently" flown in the future.

Thanks Borja, and have a great soaring time!
