Solo-pilot site note

Kotor / Zanjev Do is a Lovcen-side flying-site note, not a tandem destination page.

Use this note to preserve the confirmed solo-pilot parameters for the Kotor site before moving into rules, airspace, local briefing, or current permission checks.

Short answer: Kotor / Zanjev Do is a technical solo-pilot reference for the Lovcen-side site above the Bay of Kotor. The key preserved parameters are the Zanjev Do launch reference, elevation around 1266 m, GPS 42.405756, 18.796322, wind S / SW / W, and the important permission caution that takeoff requires prior Air Traffic Control / SMATSA approval.

Why this is a useful start

Why this page helps

This note separates solo-pilot technical reference from Kotor's tandem and scenic-public role.

The preserved data includes launch reference, wind directions, elevation, GPS, landing caution, TMA context, and permission status.

The note points pilots back toward rules, airspace, and current local judgment before any practical flying decision.

Operational caution

This site note is not flight authorization.

The confirmed permission caution is central: the airfield is not registered, and takeoff requires prior consent and official approval from Air Traffic Control / SMATSA.

The OpenAIP orientation layer also shows Terminal Maneuvering Area context with upper FL145 and lower 1500 ft GND, reinforcing why Kotor stays in the rules-and-approval layer before any scenic-site reading.

Current weather, landing availability, airspace status, approval status, and local briefing remain part of the decision.
