When was the last time you guys landed off the asphalt?
I know that when I learnt to fly "in the country" I never once landed on the dirt or grass... except once when I was told to land on the stopway on 35 at Cessnock "so you have some rough dirt runway experience"
I am surprised that Curtis Avn reckon KAT is rough. I was at YKAT a bit over 12 months ago in a C172 and yeah, it's a dirt strip... but gees...
Get out there and live a little
