airport, an airfield or airstrip is not public use but

that isn't an airport or airstrip.


I once landed a glider on a sod farm that was smoother and at least as
level as the field I took off from. Does that count? :-)

Sure! I say any field not examined and selected in advance counts as an
outlanding.

In our area, the farm fields are typically a mile square, soft powdery
dirt, and safer to land on than a runway. Why? You can always land into
the wind, there is no other traffic, and forgetting to lower your gear
doesn't result in any damage. It IS very inconvenient, however.
