We get those cold spells with a coating of snow followed by a quick thaw. So, we get lots of mud on and around our field. The center of the runway, which is, by the way, a full-scale runway, has a crest to it. So, if we are careful, the only part that gets muddy is our shoes.. at times up to our ankles.. But, we've been known to fly with skids on the hard packed snow.. if it stays cold enough, that is.

Gene.. you talking about THOSE lights?

I heard that Lawton was actually a suburb of Roswell. Is that right, Ken?
