Re: Omaruru Fly Inn 2010

Thanks JP I got that... Sorry to hear that your wings have been clipped . Temporary I hope. I have sent the applications in for overflight & landing. Maybe Hanno can chase it up... So far we are three a/c from the Cape and things are still on track for us to leave Cape Town on the 8th to be in Swako...

Re: Omaruru Fly Inn 2010

Hi Hanno That's fine. I am just inquiring if things have changed of late. On another note and for those in the Omaruru area .. I am not sure if you know that Martine Sacoun (Andre's wife) passed away yesterday morning. I saw him here in Cape Town last night and convinced him to join on the trip up. ...

Re: Omaruru Fly Inn 2010

Hi Hanno

I personally have been to Nam many times in the past, mainly with my C210. so I know the ropes regarding L&O clearances. I have also been there in my trike as well as the CT.
Have things changed regarding overflight & landing clearances for NTCA?

Re: Omaruru Fly Inn 2010

Hi JJJ I would think that our routing would be from Cape Town to Oranjemund .... a bit of a "druk" for the first day but immigration is CT and then Oranjemund. Then on to Luderitz & Swakopmund the next day.... along the coast. To go via Keetman's would probably suit those coming from Gauteng and the...

Re: Kalahari Bash

I just need to confirm a hunt that I had arranged for the same time... Maybe you guys from the Eastern Cape can organize me an alternative hunt in the ar...

Re: Building the new Bushbaby SAFARI

Hoezit Oupie I poked my head into your hanger the other day to spy on what's left of the prop on Bosvark..... I definitley think you need a new one. Are you going to go for the same specs? Did some tuning on the A's 912 and got some great results. The egt's are now within 10 degrees at 4200rpm's. Wi...
