Re: Suggested route Aeroden to Port Alfred

Hi Madman,

Many thanks - that has given me a good start! Really appreciated. I'll be flying my Bantam - with a 50 litre tank.

Currently spending xmas with the inlaws in Poland - I might come back to you with some questions once I am back sunny side!

Cheers

Jonathan

All down to a great instructor - it was great fun from start to finish, despite being hard work!

PS A great instructor plus loads of Biggles as a child ;)

Botswana Wannabe

Dear all, I wonder if you could help a prospective pilot with some basic questions? I live and teach in Botswana and have saved for some years and now can afford a light aircraft plus training.
