Our Runway – Again

Folks, the runway is really wet and soft.  Usually our trouble area is towards the west end – I have heard that the east end is pretty bad now as well.  We had another pilot get bogged down on the east end a few days ago – some neighbors helped pull him out of the mud with a truck.  Then, as he tried to get moving again, he caught his prop in the mud, bye bye prop.

Smaller tires will sink into the mud, damaging the runway and possibly damaging your plane.

We’re going to have some work to do getting the runway back in shape once it dries out, but I see that it rained again last night so I don’t expect the runway will be better until we get a dry stretch.
