Thanks for posting, Janyce. I am interested in going to Parma, but I can't make it until next weekend, at the earliest (March 5th).

The video shows an upper Parma PG landing with an east wind. HG's never land in uppers when it's east. Use lowers or lower-lowers. Also, uppers is somewhat short and there's no place to go if you overshoot. Also, if it's strong west, you may end up short if you try a long final - I've done that a few times. You have to use RLF techniques at Parma. It would be best to get a local pilot to give you the LZ tour. Have fun.
