Very nice trike.

Sorry, already committed to the Nelspruit Air show.

There was an initiative to encourage trikes and others to do the Pylon racing at Parys but I think only Grant and Barry pitched, so the record belongs to the GT's. Scully was very keen to encourage more and participates with thorough briefings and even offers a skilled pilot to fly with a few times,...

I think Blue Max was referring to the inept CAA officials. I've heard some AMO horror stories trying to get Client's aerries airborne and no money would get me involved in that industry.

Long may I continue.

Fantastic. Show some pics.

GPS Co ords please?

If that GT came in slower and just waited for the dogs and beach walkers to vacate the hard wet sand rather than so high he would have been OK. Think he was posing too much for the perfect shot.
