On site this afternoon and all is ready (just need the weather)
We had hoped to have Avgas but the bowser is still being built!
As suggested earlier all parking is on the grass between the hangers and the runway, a temporary runway exit has been constructed.

Hope to make it down from PIK, depending on the weather of course ....
How smooth is the runway ... ? I've only got little wheels and can't cope too well with potholes, soft grass or a solidstep between grass and tarmac ....

Not long back from a good day with a few bits of interest.
Thanks to all of those that called in from various location, hope to see you all next year (there are plans to give the grass a good roll !)

Hi Guys
How did the weekend go? I had hoped to visit from Perth but the wx would not play ball. I had a very pleasant visit about four weeks ago, could not believe how much the field has changed for the better in ten years. Kind regards to John, hope to see you soon.
