Seo is 1260 m long and perched half way up a mountain. I landed there once and would not like to go anywhere near it if there is significant wind blowing or mountain wave activity. There is potential for serious turbulence and down drafts. It was built to service the ski trade to avoid the long drive from Barcelona but the roads are better now and the tunnel opened 20 years ago. CB activity in the summer is interesting too
