G'day All,
I went down to the field this morning to check things out and have a quick fly.
The condition of ths the strip is fairly average, the ground is not at all firm, but on the postive side there are no puddles or standing water. If anyone was thinking of flying a larger balsa plane which requires a resonable length of strip to land perhaps you may need to have a rethink, as it will just dig in on touch down and nose over. Foamies should be fine.
As far as driving in goes as long as everyone keeps relatively close to the tree line it should be OK, but please be careful about it.
At this stage I intend to fly Sunday morning provided the weather permits.
Cheers
Chris M
