HoundDog, good point. That is how I used to fly. Bring the plane to me for touchdown and use less runway. I have seen pilot that like to land way in front of them. I have given thought to making a pilots station on wheels that I can lift and roll from one side to the other, depending on Sun position. My prevailing winds are mostly from the North. RW will be N-S.

Last cut cut is going to happen soon. Once the hay rolls are moved I will have a nice open area to inspect, decide on runway location and mark the corners.
