Sekiu Airport (11S)

Sekiu Airport, WA view map

A/C:Cessna 182RG, 65knots on final, gears and flaps down, calm wind, runway slope upward to the east, instructing short field landing in right seat, land to east and takeoff downhill to the west. Extremely dangerous during windy conditions due to crosswind and turbulence.

1/320s f/7.1 at 80.0mm iso200 full exif

other sizes: small medium original auto

... remind me, Long, to drive there and not fly. I can't imagine taking off downhill ... gotta be a thrill a minute. voted

That is a great photo. But runway looks too short! What type of aircraft uses it? And where you when you took that photo? Corkpit or a room next to runway?
Thanks.
