Had a few minutes free today and also had the car
so I called into the field at 1pm to see what sort of condition it was in.
The driveway is good, and from the top you think the runways look great.
Unfortunately as soon as you get down to the bottom of the driveway
the ground becomes very wet.
The runways and taxiways have quite a lot of surface water lying on them
with some large puddles in the middle of the runways.
The car parking area is not bad as is the Pit area but heaven help anyone who is unlucky enough
to come down on the wrong side of the creek. I doubt if you could get your car around there
due to the amount of water in the long grass.
It was nice and quiet down there today except for the sounds of the frogs which seem
to be hiding in the long grass.
I reckon if no more rain was to fall between now and Sunday you could use the field
but be prepared for some muddy conditions.
I would not suggest going down tomorrow unless you have just hand launch and belly landers
