Default Airstrip on the property



I mean, would you put an airstrip in your yard
with only 1100 ft, even without a 50 ft obstruction
for say...a Cessna 172 or a fast light sport plane?


A quick survey of my local sectional shows a great number of 1500-1800ft
private strips around where I fly. Not quite 1100ft, but in the same
neighborhood.


2400ft used to be the minimum for light aircraft to comply with DCA
(Australia) Regs
