Not your fault. These okes at the SYBC dont understand numbers or my memory fails me. I see they are celebrating their 10th birthday. Inbetween my altsheimers and moments of clarity i'm pretty sure they have been arround a bit longer Trust people that can't count years to announce programmes at cor...

Chazzy my mate, times are tough here, the wind has been howling non-stop, so flying is not that great,
Ahhh, so maybe not all Gautis will move to the Cape after all.

Hi Morpheus, you make such pretty photos. Ag man, but please buy a nice digital camera. In future you will regret the fact that your photos are not of a better quality. Or can it be that you have a fancy camera, and only put those photos from the phone into the Forum because you are scared all the G...

Hi,

if you get ADSL, you won't understand how you survived for so long the frustations of a dial-up connection. I use ADSL for privat use only. It is cheaper, and so far we have not reached the 1 gig cap.

Books on Microlighting

Hi, I am considering to to take up microlighting in a trike. I am a complete novice in this aspect of aviation, and would like to learn more about it before I take the plunge :shock: . Can anybody recommend some books on trike flying? I am not talking about coffee table books with nice pics, but the...

Hi, thanks everybody for the input. Makes a lot of sense. I once saw a couple of okes pulling a gyrocopter on a trailer to Luderitz through the sandstorm. To be honest, it was a bit of a sorry sight. It probably would be best to transport the trike in an enclosed trailer. Sounds expensive :roll: . T...

Hi, thanks for the answers. @ DarkHelmet: The aerie takes a LOT of hamerring on the back of that trailer! In your opinion, could this eventually cause structural failure, or is it more a nuisance problem, ie. scratches and rash? Would it help if the motor is removed from the airframe, or is this not...

Hi John,

thanks for your answer. I would defnitely leave the trike rigged at an airfield most of the time. I would only trailer the trike to take it on holiday, to Moz or Nam.

Regards,

Transporting Trike on Trailer

Hi, I am considering taking up microlighting, and possibly investing in a trike. At this stage I have not flown in a trike, and do not know too much about them. The main reason I would prefer a trike to a 3 axis microlight is, that it can be transported on a trailer. How well does a trike travel on ...
