Ahh, seems I forgot to submit my response, anyway, this wouldnt happen to be it? (Dolly's Grove)

At 800m, with the perfect conditions (no wind, dry surface) you could land a Cessna Mustang there with 70m to spare, minimum, taking off requires 948m but if you get the engines running at full speed while braked then try to take off you should make it. Slightly risky but should be a fun experience. (Also, I'm assuming the place is paved with asphalt down to the 'T')

- a major road too close is a problem because a plane "will" crash onto it
Only one in every 60 landings .

Who cares about noise though , no one here, at least for now.
