I've noticed on some of the news reports from Celtic Manor, a couple of armoured vehicles parked on the course. There was even a plastic F35 at one point. Those are some hazards.

Osprey? I thought it was an EAGLE.
It's a FAIRWAY to demo its ability to SWING into action.

Lucky the Osprey didn't blow the plastic F35 away as it landed, daily fail would have had a field day imagine the headline

Heard the DRIVER selected appropriate PITCH and ROLL ,with a nice BUMP AND RUN to land with PIN point accuracy next to TREEWOODS :whistle: ,after BOGEY was picked up on their GPS.With no IMPACT and light FADING the pilot chose his INTENTED LINE OF FLIGHT ,with maximum LOFT,they escaped with a soaring TRAJECTORY :P ..............i'll get my anorak!!!!!

That's a HOLE lot of posts on the subject, I don't know if it's a FAIRWAY to treat the original one, but I must admit to being GREEN with envy with some of them; I suspect a Mod will FLAG up a complaint before long, and post a SLICE of normality :whistle:
