The cow looks delicious. But apart from that?

First time I ever watched a product trailer,  and had no idea what they are selling.  🤔

edit:  Small farm strip in California.

42HV - High Voltage

A farm strip located in Paynes Creek, California.

Discover "High Voltage," a privately owned farm strip nestled amidst breathtaking hills, just a 10-mile flight from 42BC Bush Plane Campout. This grass field is sloped to one side and tailor-made for high-wing STOL aircraft, offering an exhilarating and challenging approach with nearby high-voltage power lines adding an extra thrill. If you can hear the buzzing, you're too close!

Watch for grazing cows as you enjoy a tranquil flight into the valley. With no on-site amenities, High Voltage caters to adventurous souls, but fear not, an old country store awaits just up the road, offering delightful treats and a cup of coffee. Remember to give Farmer Bob a friendly flyover before landing!

Highlights

  • Helipads: 1 grass, poorly maintained
  • Approach Considerations: Side-sloped runway. From the East, hug terrain off the right wing and turn in over the cattle shack. From the West, dive in after power lines near stall speeds.

  • Can you find the bear? What about the chicken that crossed the road?
