Just got back from the field after a good days flying....
As I said, I got down there a bit early, it was still a bit foggy:
So I posted that the field was all good but decided to test how good and casually aimed at the softest part of the field and kept driving till I found myself stuck!!
Whooops!
Luckily Darren showed up and dragged me out of there. And much fun flying was had until sadly:
Poor Mirage
The field is dry and mostly driveable (except for that wet patch!!) however the approach ramp is shot from a few people having a hard time getting back up so tomorrow I'll probably suggest not going down unless you are 100% confident in your muddy slope driving technique.
Rain is forecast over the next few hours so stay tuned to the forum as I'll be down there early tomorrow to check out the field and will post an update.
