Brief Description: Hangar Taxiway
|
|
After quite a bit of grading, compacting and testing, today the new taxiway got its surface coat of bitumen.
First they applied hot tar, then spread and rolled in 10mm gravel. After leaving for a couple hours they came back and did the same again, but this time with a finer gravel, to fill in the gaps.
Finally, after much rolling, they then went over with a brush to get rid of most of the loose stones.
I can see that I'm going to be out with a broom, however, as there's still a lot of loose stones just sitting there, waiting to chip a nice new propeller. We shan't have that!
