Chuck,
Runway 14-32 is grass. Be great to see your plane. What engine do you have.
Going to Brodhead? I may start out tomorrow from Phoenix in my Tailwind,
for Boo. George

The grass near the highway side is nice but on the other side of the paved runway
1/19 the grass was very bumpy last I knew. Maybe Jim C. knows. George

Grass is smooth, was rolled this spring. Don't taxi off the runway portion,
it gets somewhat rough and maybe some Badger holes.

I originally built 'er with the ol' Model A engine, but it proved to be
underpowered, and unreliable. Three deadstick landings kind of got my attention
!!
The first 6 months of '02 I did a firewall forward retrofit for the
Continental A65, and have been very happy with it. I now have over 300 hrs in
'er.
Check out my web site at - _http://nx770cg.com/_ (http://nx770cg.com/) One of
the pages has pictures of what I have done on my Tailwind.
Yep, I'm on both the Yahoo forum, too.
I'm camping at Brodhead for the weekend, but I think I'll fly up to Baraboo
to check out all the Tailwind stuff on Saturday. Thanks to you & Jim for the
info on the grass.

So, is the best grass 14/32 or 1/19 ?
