Hi David,

We're at Slobovia Outernational (MS71), just north of Jackson MS. Yes, that's the runway out beyond the hangar in the pic. That actually happens a few times a year in really heavy, long lasting storms, but it actually drains off within a few hours after the rain stops. In all seasons except the dead of winter (which we rarely have in MS), it will be solid enough to fly off it within hours or at worst, the next day. It's been raining for over a week, so it may take several days to a week of sunny weather before I can fly the -4. A Cub or something similar could fly within a couple of days. The drag is obviously higher when it's this wet, but there's a lot of runway (~4800' usable).

Charlie

For all you rotary seaplane builders, we've decided to host an
amphibious flyin. Is a one day notice too quick?
