Our New Airstrip

There’s a new piece of land out front of our house due to sedimentation.

It is long and flat and clear of vegetation.

It has caught the attention of the pilots from the nearby private airport.

First a helicopter landed on it. (earlier post)

Now, we have observed PLANES landing on it.

The first time this happened was at dusk and I could not get photos.

It happened again yesterday.

I was worried about boaters landing on the new island! HA.

One yellow plane landed and took off while the other yellow plane flew alongside probably to film the feat.

There was a dip after takeoff. We thought it might go under the water but it pulled back up.

We may need to trim some limbs, so we won’t miss any of the air shows.

P.S. My daddy would love this. He had a little yellow and red Piper Cub.

  1. That sounds dangerous. Our lake, which is a dammed up river was silted in and caused major flooding to a large part of our community. People lost everything in their houses. Our council member has worked for years having tons of silt removed.

  2. I’m glad you can find enjoyment in your new airstrip. I hope your little peaceful part of the world doesn’t get too crowded and noisy.Sent from my T-Mobile 4G LTE Device
