Default RE: Some questions about grass runways.

i rarly props on nose over's. i only fly off a grass field and besides the pot holes to watch out for (were trying to get it level again) its not horrible. some planes like the grass more than others. my rapture has a nose over now and then (if i hit a pothole on taxi its a 50-50 chance of a nose strike). my spad doesnt know its on a grass runway (never had grass related noseover)
i have a yak 54 and a spad HOR id like to get out to the field this weekend for maiden. the yak 54 only has 3in or so of prop clearence, i hope its not a problem although i think it will be.
