PaulN Posted December 28, 2007 Share Posted December 28, 2007 Here's another, shouldn't be too hard. A nice strip to touch down on ... with a dip in the middle, "greasing it" is real easy. Paul Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flyer Posted December 28, 2007 Share Posted December 28, 2007 Launceston ? by any chance? last time I was in there was as a passenger in a DC9 in 83! I distinctly remember that dip in the runway though.... Regards Phil Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PaulN Posted December 28, 2007 Share Posted December 28, 2007 Too easy Phil ;). Gone are the days you could just land, tie down your plane and walk off the field. At Launy the security vehicle rocked up pretty much as soon as we switched off with offers to help us out. He headed away while we refuelled, unpacked and tied down not to be seen again. So we had to walk all the way to the pax terminal and slip in though the RPT entrance ... good thing the ASIC was hanging prominently. Then to get back to the plane we had to find the security guy again to gain access to the field, but not until we left him with our name and address for billing . At least the CT was safe from terrorists . Paul Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PaulN Posted December 29, 2007 Share Posted December 29, 2007 Terry, at this early stage let's just say this strip is south of Cooma (YCOM), any more and it would be a give-away. Paul Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
