The following two photos show the location of what we refer to as the Winter Strip (the darker green line). This is the smoothest and driest surface.

Above: View of 07 showing the line of the Winter strip in dark green. There is a displaced threshold at this end of the strip.

Below: View of 25 showing the line of the Winter strip in dark green.

Prior permission and briefing are essential. Use is at the pilot's discretion and risk.
