Film of a prototype 737 operating on a grass runway.
I'm a little fried, so I'll leave it to you to research the details of the test.

A blog by a "sucker" and a "loser" who served her country in the Navy.
If you're one of the Covidiots who believe that COVID-19 is "just the flu",
that the 2020 election was stolen, or
especially if you supported the 1/6/21 insurrection,
leave now.
Slava Ukraini!

Apparently it was a demonstration of capability for the 737.
It was, and it cost Boeing a little to restore the field after they used it. They tested a ski that they later developed into part of the gravel kit for the -200.
Rough field operation was a Boeing 727 capability, maybe they wanted to make the 737 more attractive to Third World and military customers by proving that it had some such potential as well.
