I am planing on getting to mcCoy by 9am and will open the gates if they are not already open.

Don't know what you guys are complaining about , there were three intrepid souls down there flying this morning. Although wearing gumboots made wading from the high ground to the strip a lot easier.

Just to add my two bobs worth, let me say the flying was great at McCoy today and by the time I left at 12pm I had been in the air for more than an hour. I must say although a little damp the grass wa...

Thanks for the update Chris. The front gate is part of Blacktown council. I will give them a call today and see what can happen.
