Some crazy airports out there. Gave me an appreciation that our airfield, on scale, matches some of the most extreme real airstrips. Proves that if we can fly and land at our field, we can fly anywher...

They say Dinosaurs only had brains the size of a peanut. At least they had more brains than the mindless idiots that chose our runway again to practice donuts.

I will probably be at the field 8.30 - 9.00 to open today. Dew and fresh grass clippings made a mess of the planes early yesterday, so no need to open too early.

Poetry has a certain license, corny things can be said and sound better or more comical. Mostly brings a smile, which is a great start to the day.

Today's tour guide asked me to pass on the notice that their planes are bigger & faster. I wonder if they are aware of our Rare Bear racing team or Samste's suped up EDF striker. Was thinking of invit...
