JOHNSON CREEK APPROACH & LANDING
The versatile Piper Saratoga here is making a downwind landing on RW17 at the back country turf field, Johnson Creek Airport (3U2), near Yellow Pine, ID. In the beginning of the vid., the A/C is flying at 10,500' altitude and ~4 nm from RW threshold. DA is 5,900'. Winds were 310 deg. at 8. Terrain immediately surrounding the airfield is 9,500' MSL. The RW is 3,400' long at elevation 4,933'. Camera: GoPro HD Hero3+ Black mounted on left wingtip. There are no published IAP's for 3U2. State of Idaho ITD, Div. Aero, advises landing RW17, depart RW35. Turf was wet, braking poor. Don't let the kids try this in the backyard.
