Re: Wakeboarding behind a plane

Aerosan - for sure, we at dunnotar hearties and swartkops most weekends. In fact I land the cheetah at dunnotar airbase (ex base) some times and fly paramotors and then fly back home afterwards.

Let me know when you got time, and we can get over to Dunnotar together.
