No point in replanting the hawthorn hedge on the upwind end!
Over the years I've helped push two other aircraft out of the farmer's field beyond the road off 24.... and one off the other end. Another came very close to hitting me in my car. The wing came through the hedge into the road, as the pilot ground looped it in an attempt to stop it crossing the road after landing two thirds of the way up 06 with a tailwind. If I hadn't accelerated it would have hit me.
I watched another pilot land his Cub very short
on the hedge and bounced off - very lucky to get away with it, too!
EGNF certainly sorts out the good pilots...
