Comment thread "Effectively a 1-way strip" for One Hundred Mile House Airport

Comments 1 to 1 of 1 in the thread "Effectively a 1-way strip" (One Hundred Mile House Airport):

100 mile house's runway has a favourable gradient for landing eastbound and taking off westbound. This combined with a big hill to the east makes it effectively a 1-way strip. Watch out for your density altitude as the hot summer days can reach > 30 degrees C regularly. If your runway length is tight, you can begin your takeoff roll on the ramp as only a very slight turn is required from there to line up with the runway. The airport itself is quite scenic, and it's close to the town - either a medium-length walk or a very short cab ride.
