The original question was a choice between a wet soft field or a road.. .. .The answer is obviously a road if it is safe to land on it.. .. .One other observation there are many people who read this stuff besides those from the British Isles, beyond all doubt Britain does have very few roads that are suitable to land on.( At least from what I have seen. ). .. . North America and Australia on the other hand have thousands of them.. .. .Now go back and read my first comment, i.e. only choose a road if it is safe to land there.. .. .Quite simple really. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Smile]" src="smile.gif" /> <img border="0" title="" alt="[Smile]" src="smile.gif" /> . .. .Oh, I just can't resist this comment::: We don't have JAR and JAA either. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Smile]" src="smile.gif" /> <img border="0" title="" alt="[Smile]" src="smile.gif" /> . .. ............ . <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="biggrin.gif" /> The hardest thing about flying is knowing when to say no. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="biggrin.gif" />
