When can I fly?

So: I've filled up a plastic glass with wee, had to walk down a public passage without spilling it, just to watch some lady stir it with the dumbest spoon I have ever seen, I've blown and sucked muggies through a tube until I coughed Sat in a smelly airtight box with sticky earphones on listening to...

Re: Pressure - Windfinder vs W underground

:) :) Nice simple response. Thanks One site is Witbank dam. The actual altitude is not shown on the sites. Both sites are showing a different temperature so I can safely assume the elevations are not the same. The "/30" portion of the calc is because pressure drops by 1hpa per 30 feet ? Also on the ...

Re: Flight over Witbank this Thursday morning

If you bend over in Witbank there are to many people to take advantage. Govt officials, e toll municipality etc. Besides it was a full moon on Sunday.
The other way round I would have to wash the coal dust off, besides the tiled floor was cold, standing there like a tripod would stress the meneer.

Flight over Witbank this Thursday morning

Some chop had an awesome flight over Witbank and the Witbank dam area this morning (^^) . Dead still, mist on the dam and a beaut sunrise. I don't see how it could be better. I had to watch from my balcony with a towel around my waist and shaving cream on my face. Very jealous... :mrgreen: :mrgreen:...

Vodacom Archived Numbers - Beware

I purchased a tabet and data simcard for softness for her birthday. (10th May same day as the Swartkops airshow... sux) After activation a whole lot of watsapps, sms's from Capitec bank and other stuff started coming through. What I have discovered is: If you buy a simcard (Vodacom number) and don't...

Voting - Wed 7th - Text your ID to 32810

Hello Micolighters, I'm voting so I have the right to complain later vhpy A fair number of people I have spoken to are under the impression that because they did not register a couple of weeks back, they are not eligible to vote! :shock: Quite simply if you registered 20 years ago you are still able...

Re: Let's talk about ATTITUDE

So John, how come it becomes your problem? Probably because the witness does not want to get involved and that seems to be one of the issues we are dealing with in GA. If I understand correctly there are three bodies on the trike? I'm asking because it defies comprehension. Pax probably thinks thing...

Re: altitude and hypoxia

I've been up to 10 000, through the JBG tma at 7200 unannounced. (**) Dumb. ## I was there around 3-5 minutes. It was unpleasant & pointless. It takes forever to get there and coming down again is also time consuming and trust me you soon want to get down to a reasonable level and in hindsight pulli...

Re: Recording of Mobile cell calls - Beware

I don't think he threatened anyone, just called him names and used a couple of non politically correct words. It looks like the whole issue is a storm in a tea cup. A borrel whiskey met eish may solve the problem. He will still have to listen to the dog but hopefully they can get onto slightly bette...

Recording of Mobile cell calls - Beware

My buddy has been woken up at night on a regular basis by the neighbours dog :evil: . He has shouted, pleaded and spoken to him nicely with no change. Anyway last night he flipped and phoned the guy and gave him a fat rev & told him what he thought of him. He now believes the call was recorded by th...
