Weiser is cool though I wonder what happens if the field is wet...

When the field is wet you back taxi down the runway rather than taxi in
the grass. It can get a trifle muddy, and even light twins will get
stuck. I've not had a problem in the parking areas, but it can get very
wet there too.

Actually, it is: the direct link:
http://www.dylansmith.net/c170/badlanding.html

The addenum is that an hour later, I was sitting at that end (Windsock
wasn't there at the time, only a couple of old decaying wooden benches)
and someone came up to me and asked if I had flown the C170 in. (IIRC,
it was Ashley Histand, one of the BAAC's instructors who happened to be
up there too). I sheepishly admitted 'yes', and carefully enquired if
he'd witnessed my landing. He said no, he just saw that the plane was
parked up. I let out a sigh of relief.

I'm not sure I ever told him why I enquired whether he'd seen the
landing though.

Yeah, they probably even use *ground* meat... Every *real* Texan knows that
the meat must be diced and not ground...
