flyerme Posted July 16, 2016 Author Share Posted July 16, 2016 Huge success..... Was overwhelming with 19 arrivals and around 40 people.,. Runway was so compact there a black skid marks everywhere!!! Had everything from a tiger to a trike.. And NO one used the 450 meters!! Infact all were stopped within 300 meters and were able to turn off the taxi parking are .. Didn't exspect that. WX was perfect how ever as murphy is never far away when you fly a vintage bi-plane war bird, a rogue gust challenged Barry in his tiger to a dual whilst slow taxing but thankfully Barry won.. Thank you so much everyone it was an awesome day. Oh and I scored a ride in a trike with the SA board Rep 3 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Deskpilot Posted July 18, 2016 Share Posted July 18, 2016 Tim, you've sure improved your runway from when I attempted and aborted landing on the original short/narrow strip you had way back then. Hard work obviously paid off. Well done mate. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
