Airstrip Update: April, 2008

A couple of recent photos that show how this once steep jungle ridge line is being transformed into an airstrip.

Gotta get that nasty bump out of the runway. Since this picture was taken in March, the bump has been reduced, and with the arrival of the new bucket and blade, it should take good shape more quickly. It is amazing to see the work that has been done. New Holland should sit up and take note of the work its machine has done!

Poor quality photo but shows good news for us: North Coast Aviation buzzing the airstrip to check on the progress and practice shooting approaches.
