You can only tie the record for flying low.
Re: Info on Aero57
Hi,
You can land there for a cup of coffee, no problem. Let me know when you planning on flying out, I can meet up with you in the area and "escort" you in!
Field elevation: 5100ft
Radio: 125.25
Co-Ords: S25 54 11.40 E028 04 55.20
Runways:18/36, 600x18 m, grass uphill rwy 18
12/30, 350x18m, grass, houses adjacent E of rwy (use of runway to be limited, due to no fly zone)
No fly zone to the east of airfield.
Join overhead at 6000ft, call 3 - 5 nm out. To determine active runway. (right hand circuit for 17, left hand circuit for 36).
Hope that helps!

Cheers Tracer.
Thanks for the info, my thinking is to come next Saturday, weather permitting of course.
If you wouldn't mind, PM me your cell number please, so than I can call when we leave and you can escort us in.
Hopefully see you then.

Hey Stephen
If we weren't flying to Benics tomorrow I would gladly fly with you to Aero 57. Maybe we should arrange a flight there sometime. Unless you mean't next Saturday 31st Jan. If so I will gladly fly with you. Let me know.
