Yes, back in, so some more details.

ETOPS not far off the mark as Google Earth a good guide, however, we measured with a wheel, just hope fairly accurate over the grass but make some slight allowances.

15/33 Grass - 274m with a further 49m hard run off/starter strip on the northern end. Used less than half in the Husky.

17/35 Grass - 370m with a further 49m hard run off/starter strip on the northern end.

There is an upslope on Rwys 15 and 17.

The grass strips must be used for all arrivals on the Saturday.
The Good News - Approx 585m Rwy 03/21 will be available from approx. 17:30 local time once some safeguarding actions have been put in place.

Amongst those already booked are a Cessna 152/172/180 and 182 and some nice Cubs, Austers, Luscombe etc.
