Wonder if the guy in the red and white biplane was Bill from the Red Green show?  Some of my takeoffs and  landings might look like his, but it's only when I'm saying "don't do it like this"  (or at least thought that afterwards)   Guess he was enjoying him self though, and I don't think anything got bent.  Close though.....  JImChuk

yup.  Thats the Mangy!

The guy with the red and white biplane was grounded because of shear incompetence.  He had no idea how to fly it.

 

At 14:00 I don't look any better...

Naw Larry, that was just a bit of a bounce.  You didn't come close to dragging a wing like he did on the one takeoff.  JImChuk

That area looks like a hell of a lot of fun.  Just wrapped up a week at the Reno Air Races, and as much as I love seeing guys blow their hard earned money and putting their lives on the line, I think I’d rather be at a light sport/ultralight event.

damn, you got some tall trees to clear on the approach?  looks like everyone is diving for the runway.  I seriously need to change my work schedule so I can make it down there this year!

The landing path shown in this video turns a very short right base to final, over a tree line, through a narrow cut and finally landing downhill.  It's a challenge.

The strip is 1200' length in total, including a 200' over run on each end.

kind of what I figured watching the vids.  Leveling out that runway might help a bunch too, looks like it has some fun rollers in it.  The biplane was scary at best.  reminds me of watching the RC scale masters pilots.  They might be able to build beautiful birds but they can't fly for shit :lol:
