General Discussion / Spikes on the Runway
Last post by davidk - March 16, 2025, 07:05:04 PM
Frost has pushed up the spikes on the runway, down the middle and the sides... so be cautious when taking off and landing.  The ground is still frozen so they can't yet be pushed down.

4:00 pm EDT

In a word: raw!!

Winds: East gusting to 30 kmh
Sky: overcast
Temp: 0 degrees C

Runway: 90% clear, 10% snow patches (1" thick wet granular)

Pits: 3-4" wet granular crunchy snow

Good crosswind practice day.

NOT a good day for those who prefer sleeveless undershirts!

Silver lining:  no mosquitoes, no black flies, no no-see-ums, no ticks (in the pits).

Dark cloud;  very chilly for relieving oneself; port-a-potty recommended.

😇
