I remember when Soonderloond was a grass airstrip, not a jap car factory. A vicious upward hump in the runway I remember. I almost came a cropper there, taking off in a very heavily overloaded ancient 172 (the type that had no rear window and had a hand-cranked flap handle) and a decrepit engine which had failed its last cylinder pressure test. Silly me.
If it wasn't for Good Lady Luck, and some tricky tweaking on the elevators, I might have become a legendary flying leg end.
