Savannah S with Viking 130

I would just let nature do its thing.If it rains and the grass,weeds get to long just slash it .Do you have something to drag behind a tractor to keep it smooth and level when its dry and nothing is growing on it and is bare. I use a bunch of railway line welded together.

I think you should let mother nature set it's course. To water and maintain a 400m strip is going to mean lots of work. What I do at home with my lawn is mow it if it rains and if doesn't rain forget about it because I don't have enough water for it.And to irrigate a 400m strip is going to need a lot of water and infrastructure to do it.

If I was Elon I would have put a servo in the dummies head just enough to make it move a little just enough to get peoples attention.

Look what happened to last years winner and the leader up until today, out with a back injury. Yes there is a long way to go. Nothing worse than getting sand in your pants.

Came across this interesting way of using all your fuel. https://l.facebook.com/l.php?u=https%3A%2F%2Fyoutu.be%2FyfE1v65fNZI&h=ATPkyA2CsBq7sl-gOOZmz4yA2ZAgZ-rwY-_5mKrlUi6K41l8b_gPtV3X1z1VSxHM3kn05bxibsfCuQFGgae_pYD91xhmFkhhZQF7te7s7UKcBYW9N9y4Ixr8EzEY8rY4UxUyURcD4ahH1NXPRtJee1SHh6g4W-gB1-_0c0zDwgUXSSe8YQQ5PdhgtwFs0htYnco3P6Lox6fNHVi-mJK2_IGW67K90H6RogydCFrWQghEE5_rInCcvtjV692SvZv_ Adrian.

Thanks SDQDI Nothing is set in concrete yet I just don't want to bother people until I can commit 100%. Thats why I was asking here if anybody has done what I would like to do.But it looks like I will have to make a trip down to Quirindi and introduce my self. Adrian. -

No I have not gone to ground I am confused with so many different answers. Here is what I was thinking on doing I am planning to buy a just aircraft kit plane.The distributor is not far from where I live. Just Aircraft Australia I have not approached the distributor yet as I am just trying to work out a plan to save money and learn to fly in the plane that I have built. Things are in the early stages yet all I was trying to find out is can I be taught how to fly in a kit plane that I intend on building so far it has been clear as mud (lol). Just thought it would be a logical thing to do. Adrian. -
G'day People. Been trying to find info on being taught to fly in the kit plane that you have built.I am looking at buying a kit plane next year and was wondering if I can get my licence with this plane which seems to be a logical thing to do. Which means I save money not hiring a plane and get to know the plane that I own. Is this possible,I know you have to find a instructor willing to do this. Just putting it out there. Adrian.

This might help. Aircraft engine parts, Aircraft Gear Box, LSA, Experimental, Airboats, 100hp, 117hp

Wonder what the things sounds like inside when flying. Bally's Bomber Adrian.

Or you could do it this way.

Funny how you mention sheep yards Bruce I just spent the day pulling some old ones down . Getting rid of obstacles that can come into play.The runway will be running east - west with the westerly end starting near the house ,Then I have got 2km to a fence line.Plus the approaches that I will have are clear for miles as it is mainly flat farming country. But the numbers you guys are giving me have helped a lot.

I don't have to worry about too much grass living out west of the mountains.We have black soil here on the plains and can be made into a super smooth runway just by dragging a bit railway line welded together back and forth a few times. But when it rains things can get a bit sticky, but that doesn't often happen enough. So what is a comfortable length for your average GA plane? Adrian.

I want to put a airstrip out the front of home and was wondering what would be a good length. The plane that I am considering getting is a stol type plane. So for me I can just about land any where on the property.But for your average bush strip what would be a good length?. Maintenance is the main factor why I am asking. I could make it 2km long but I don't think that would be viable. Adrian.
