2017 Dust Devil Dash - Mountain Valley Airport (L94) California

Kathy (4P) and Tom Serkowski (5Z) still flying with less than an hour to sunset! Thrilling! I'm guessing 5Z headed for Air Sailing. If Kathy can float the Libelle to Silver Springs she will win! Nail biting...

Oh! Tom passed Air Sailing, maybe going for Herlong?

Tom landed Herlong for the win and Kathy should be second with a landing at Yerington. Congrats to all!

And in case anyone's interested, Herlong now has a freshly paved and painted runway. Still only 40' or so wide, but nicely graded edges and plenty of room to move to one side and drop a wing on the pavement.

There are a few homes attached to the airport, but none have any hangar or aircraft. The "ramp" is just a midfield taxiway with a graded dirt area next to it.

5Z
