Unpaved Landing areas

wrote: How often do you get to land or take off from something other than a paved runway? Hardly ever. Insurance policies increasingly prohibit it. My home field (7B3 Hampton NH) is grass, and I'm insured! It's certainly true that most of the airports I can reach are paved, but 2B2 Plum Island MA has a grass runway at an angle to the tarmac. I choose it if I possibly can because it's in much better shape than the asphalt.
