I think I offered this challenge before - I know I did it several times
at MTOW in the 748 when we were Beta-ing it
Moontown (Huntsville Ala) - its grass has trees at both ends and
a 800 foot escarpment immeadiatly adjacent to the south that hooks around the west eond of the airport
Its modeled fairly well in basic FS9 - If the Budgie
did it then the Super Budgie should have No Problems - We operate
some 3000 foot long strips in Alaska at the VA with the 780

practicing on the 400yd grass strip at Bembridge

Thought it was you Pete LOL
We have some really interesting approaches for the Super Budgie at VHAVA probably one of the most fun is Skagway in the Glacier Bay
area of Alaska out of Juneau - it helps to fly down the North side of the Fjiord LOL
