Kerian,

My practice was on an 8000' runway at kSDM. The advantage for me was
that I could get airborn and land 2 times in that distance with the
safety of the runway under me. You just would not believe how much
these planes can springboard or porpoise or PIO until it hapens to
you.

Fly safe,

Ryan
