The runway is runs parallel to the highway.
The only problem with 26 is the psychological problem of that final last
second turn onto the runway.
I was advised to make a rudder turn before I came in for the first
time. Seems to work, though you need to bank around first. Then
rudder to straighten up just before the wheels touch.
There's a big arrow painted on the ground to tell you which way
to go in isn't there?! :-)

It's one of the cheaper places to fly in the UK.
Go north west on the map and you'll see Bourne Park.
I used to fly G-BDUO when it was at Cardiff. It's now based at
Popham. Nice new paint now! Before it was repainted I helped
Irv Lee scrape the ice off it once. Don't know if that contributed
to the need for re-painting... :-)
Ah, I see the ukga.com guy has posted my photograph of
Bourne Park.
My home airfield chaps, for all who want to see it!
