Years ago, when I didn't know of the existence of this aerodrome, I was driving on Jog Road and suddenly I see an small single engine high-wing airplane approaching at 90 degrees from my direction, very close to the ground and dissapering behind some trees. Honestly I thought that was some kind of emergency-crash landing.
I made a totally illegal U-turn to check the situation. And wow!, to my surprise I see the aircraft, very confident, taxing around on a grassy landing strip.
Even up today, this aerodrome in the middle of a residential area, still looks like a cool oddity to me.
