 |
|
Well time is flying fast now.
The second annual Nauga Field Fly Around will be held July 11, 12, & 13th.
Location is south of St. Francisville, LA in the community of Starhill, LA.
Nauga Field - LS35
1550 ft. runway with obstacles both ends.
Folks planning to attend:
John Hauck Mark IIIC Titus, AL
James Tripp Firestar Millbrook, AL (next year Mark III)
Steven Green Mark IIIC Etowah, TN
Gary Haley Mark IIIC Houston, TX
Jimmy Young Firestar Houston, TX (trailering)
Ken Korenek Titan Dallas, TX (2005 Oshkosh Light Plane Grand Champion)
A few locals.
If I left anyone off the list, let me know so we can get the menus and groceries right. T-shirts are ordered. Hope the weather cooperates.
For those that have never attended. Here are some rough videos. Sorry about the poor quality and shake. These are my first attempts and it was a bit thermally. I'm learning and experimenting. Will give you a rough idea of what to expect.
For landing, the preferred RWY is 14 (to SE). Obstacles are further back and a makes is a little easier. Not enough difference to try to land downwind.
The preferred RWY for takeoff is RWY 32 (to NW). Mostly because of available emergency landing options.
Take off runway 32:

Landing runway 14:

You should be able to notice from the airspeed indicator that these are not maximum performance takeoff and landing (no braking!). Trying not to let out secrets so I can try to take the trophy away from John Hauck for the shortest landing last year. I'm pretty sure the lighter Firestar's will give him some stiff competition.
Hope everyone can make it. Above all be safe.
Should be able to put most folks up in bunks, spare rooms, etc. Don't need to pack a tent except for RON's to/from Nauga Field.
The community of Starhill, my wife, and I are looking forward to the weekend.

Ronnie has the wild pig in the cooler for Saturday night.
Right now, the weather forecast is looking favorable.

I am planning to leave Friday morning. I have an oil leak I have to repair
between now and Friday. The quick drain on the oil tank has a small
leak......if all else fails I will put the standard plug back in it.

FWIW I would definitely put the standard plug back in, until you're
SURE you've fixed the leak.
I lost a Lycoming 0-360 due to a quick-drain that leaked oil in
flight -- but none of us could make it leak on the ground.
Good luck.

Steven,
Sometimes people think their Quick Drain plug is leaking when it
isn't. What happens is that a little oil remains in the exit tube
and "drains" out, making one think the QD is leaking. A little oil
can seem like a lot. My solution is to swab the exit with a couple
of que tips, curing my "leak." Yours may indeed be a leak, but you
might check to see if it is simply oil left in the exit.
