Off at a tangent I know, but I worked with a guy that got his licence and did all his flying the flying club at RAAF Pearce in Western Australia, flying Cessnas from the 2400+ metre runway.

On his first cross country he had to do a touch and go at Jandakot Airport (max length 1392m)

He recons that when he came in he almost freaked out, shook his head and said "how do they expect me to land on that tiny thing!!!!!!", I'm not sure what his instructor said?


Cheers
