At Jackson Muni. the approach to Runway 13, With crops like soybeans and corn growing  a reasonable distance from the runway gives the appearance that the aircraft ia landing in a hole. Runway 13 Elevation 1,431 feet has a 0.4% up hill gradient. I'll go back on monday and ask if I can get    out by the appoach to  Runway 13 and get some shots.
