Yes, weed killer and re-seeding is what we really need. We are a small club (30 members) so our budget is small. Seeding 2+ acres of land is expensive.

Taildraggers do handle our field much better than tricycle gear planes. I'm going to suggest that one of our newer students convert his trainer to a taildragger and see how he does with it. When I was learning RC I found taildraggers actually easier to handle on takeoff than tricycle gear, but I had full-scale experience with taildraggers prior to RC.

Thanks.
