Yes, it changes the pace from normal runways, but on all future tours, no more grass, mud, ice, swamps, rocks, (have I got them all?).

I can't tell the difference between ground and runway....seems just a bit tough to hit a landing spot and figure out where the ________ the runway is....

Ok done venting....still got a 52 landing....so not a zero at least.

Hi JoeMini

So you won't be applying for the post of pilot with the Flying Doctor Service?

Ha ha Joe... Are we getting frustrated there? Remember - if it dosent kill you it makes you strong. You will end up being one hawk of spotting rwys from the air, even though its but a faded white paintbrush spot in the high grass of the African savannah!

Try Aerosofts "African adventure".... something. This should be full of such almost hidden rwys, and you will get skilled in no time.

See you in El Tari next year Joe.

You are correct....i've been a little lazy updating my scoring sheet....I'm in Dunk Island hence my tirade on the grasss subject.

Do you suppose a bush doctor is getting graded on hitting a spot exactly or saving a life?
