Just a warning really. We are caught in the middle of 3 landowners who all own a bit of kirkbrides main runway and as of monday have the western 300metres of10 blocked off by two rather hard to see feed trailers( next to where you taxy on to the runway if you know the field), The eastern end of the runway is obstructed from the centerline south for the first 350 meters by two large and very solid silage trailers leaving about 450 meters ish unobstructed in the middle.We dont know how long this will all be in place, it may be long term so if you do want to visit please take care on approach. The half of the eastern end is still
available for take off roll and landing roll if landing on 10, it just means its not as stress free as it was.
Please circulate this to anyone you know who flys in here as
otherwise someone could get hurt.
The flying club at kirkbride is independant of this problem and extends its usuall warm welcome to all pilots.
