I think when the frost comes out it will be pretty bad for driving on unless you have a 4x4 or more

Can we park on the road and fly off the field directly north like we did last year? Then we don't have to drive on our field at all.

.. umm.. yes. Flying on the north side of the field would be a great idea.

No grasshopper trainer. I ask if we can fly off the field east of ours, like we did before our field was usable? So the field that you would run into if you did not turn to get to our field. The one where the big tree is, that field. Can we fly there??

It seems like the best way to get to the field and avoid the mud - is by helicopter...

Or getting a tow from a 4x4. Although flying in by heli to fly helis would be cool!!!

I'm sorry, but I took it from this that you were asking if we could fly off the field directly north.

My guess is we can fly anywhere out there we want as long as we're not driving on the grass. If we're going up the road to our field I'd prefer to fly off our field as the grass is cleared where Mike plowed and I'd rather have skids on grass than snow.

I land on a landing pad so no problem there.

I will say from last Saturday that landing on the grass does throw up allot of crap onto the heli.

Who asked for all this snow in the first place

Default Field update

Ed and I drove to the field after our day was shortened by mishaps. I can say if you fly planes off the old field you better have floats.

We did not drive onto our field, but the road out to the field is pretty good now. Nobody was out there anywhere, why??
