We all rushed out to watch and it was quite an event, especially considering our airstrip is only 600m (1970 ft) long.
It managed with no problem at all in the end and actually only used less than 200m to land, stop and turn round. All this was possible due to the fact that it was a Boeing Stearman with a top speed of 120 mph and a landing speed of only 50 mph.
It is here for some maintenance - so we took it apart...
