What are you talking about? Flux capacitors have been around since Wilbur and Orville's days!
But seriously, I live in Hanson and am very surprised there are not more instances like this. Back when I was learning to fly(five lifetimes ago) Cranland was THE field to take new guys out to get real world STOL experience. Aside from the runway being stupidly short there was a line of tall trees at both ends that really made you question as to whether or not try this. Don't know if somebody had the sense to finally cut them down since then. The one time I flew in and out I'm pretty sure kissed the tree tops with the gear. And this was in a Piper Warrior with me, the CFI and maybe half tanks to keep the weight down. Don't know how they do it with A/C loaded with crew, jumpers, and gear...a Fieseler Storch would probably have a tough time here.
BTW Hanson is the hometown of the Navy pilot that flew the first transatlantic flight in the flying boat (NC-4?) way back when!
