Thanks Bob !

Hey Sam, I saw this thread on Monday, but I thought "This took place in a "Real" county airpark (maybe somewhere in Texas)?" Well, it sure looks like an airpark, that looks real, but what county is the "real" airpark in?

I decided to do some research and what do you know! There's really a place in Texas called "Real County"! So I thought the funny stuff was over. Nope! The County seat is Leakey. Nothing worse than a leakey seat. I guess the seat must have air in it or is meant to float on water?

Now I need to do some research to see if there's a "Fake County" in Texas. Well, if anyone tells you there's a Fake County in Texas, they're giving you fake news, not real news!

And as for the County seat, described as Leakey there's another city in Texas called Sealy (in Austin County). I think Leakey should get help from Sealy - then, no more leakage problems.

Yeah, Real (re'-all) ...that's the Gringo pronunciation that I grew up with. Some people roll the R and say Al.

And, Leakey (lay'-key) John Leakey, "From Texas to Montana"

Look in the Remarks: ultralight activity adjacent to Rwy 15/33

The remarks are cool, but check out that runway photo:

Ben makes it look easy!!

When I heard the vario going off I thought he might climb on out of there. Maybe next time Ben!!
