While i had long respected John's pictures and writing in the various aviation magazines, I had the opportunity to meet him and his family for a much different reason. During the 2010 world cup they released a sticker book with all the players and he had posted on Avcom that they were looking for a ...

LOL,

I have never heard anyone say "yes" that fast.

Fear not, fellow aviators, The owl will return to the skies. He just had a few pressing bucket list items to tick off, one done, one to go in September.

Just need to get a renewal done now.

Blue skies boys

I did fly by, unfortunately it was at about 12,000 ft and the captain mustn't have gotten my request to do a beat up down 07,

Not too long and Charlie Romeo will get airborne again, nothing wrong with the plane, just the pilot

I Hope they allowed for Andy Greens stainless steel cojones in the ballast calculations

From a boots point of view Bundy, I have a pair of Croc boots. They have the usual rubber whatever bottoms, without the larney holes, but the ankles are fleece lined, nice and toasty with a pair of hiking socks, they have no seams so nowhere for the wind to go. (!!) The gloves are another story, hav...

Happy happy Morph,

Have a good one

Thanks for the kind wishes folks, sorry it took so long to reply, been a bit busy. @Alpha, i need to get down there soon, Charlie needs to go for a flip and Catbert needs to get flying again, will take a vacuum cleaner for the dust, thanks for the heads up :lol: Hopefully see everyone around the pat...

Some quick-witted comedian in the DC-8 crew got on the radio and said, "What a cute little plane. Did you m...

Thanks Paul, Thats exactly what i was looking for, I know there is a bad connection in that plug from a 'fiddle fix' but wasn't sure what all the wires were for. Much appreciated (^^) Hey Johan, as much as i would like an airmagic system, (and i would, already have the bunny aerial) the system we ha...

Hi guys, The comms on my trike are playing up a bit, i am using a buzzcom intercom, vertex radio, does anyone have a wiring diagram for a system like this, i suspect a bunch of dry connections, and in the case of the connection that goes onto the radio a damaged wire inside the sealed plug. any info...

He is indeed

Thanks Gary,

They didn't have the one i wanted at Comet, the ones i bought are good enough, but i liked the other one better.

She had a ball, really enjoyed it. Going to need another plane now i think, i suspect the Cobra is now hers

When i first started flying I bought a Jeppesen VFR map of the Joburg special rules area, It has now come to the end of it's life and i want a new one (also the special rules areas have changed) I cannot for the life of me remember where i bought it, does anyone know where we can get on? I need 2, M...
