    They look OK, there's a guy near me that runs a couple from a private...I was going to say airfield then, but maybe strip of grass is better.

    but I've never seen anyone doing anything other that sitting there going mostly in a straight line, with the occassional long slow turn. I might get bored.

    I may be really wide of the mark here but somehow...
