• The Biplane Forum is a large global active community of biplane builders, owners and pilots. From Pitts to Skybolts, to older barnstormers, all types are welcome. In addition to our active community, our content boasts exhaustive technical information which is often sought after for projects and maintenance. This information has accumulated over the 12+ years the forum has been in existence.

    The Biplane Forum is a private community. Subscriptions are only $49.99/year or $6.99/month to gain access to this great community and unmatched source of information not found anywhere else on the web. We are also a great resource for non biplane users, since many GA aircraft are built the same way (fabric and tube construction). Annual membership also comes with two BiplaneForum.com decals.



Courchevel: go-around possible?

Looking at the video below, is it at all possible to go-around (once you're in over the runway)? Would it be too steep a climb to avoid the surrounding mountains? Concidering the steep runway, landing long seems not to be a problem. But failing to be aligned with the runway at touchdown could make a go-around necessary.

Are there any bigger airplanes flying there today? And have there been any accidents at this airport?
