Anyway, the angled TO and Landing in xwinds is good stuff that I also
advocate. The centerline is nice but into the wind is better.

I've often thought of doing this, since the airstrip must be 200 feet
wide. Alas, so many centerline pilots have used it over the years that
it's rough in the middle, so I land to either side.

(Indeed, it also has a hill two-thirds of the way down 02, on the east
side, so if one lands long or fast it's best to keep the the west. So
the 200 foot-wide runway in practice comes down to 60 feet
