Microlight Clubs in the Free State

Postby John Boucher » Fri Apr 09, 2010 9:06 am

Hi guys

Could anyone assist with information regarding Microlight Clubs in the Free State? If so, does anyone have a list of these clubs?

The reason being that the information is required for the new Free State Tourism website...

You can speak to Dawie Breedt, alias Madala on this forum, his nr is: oh ate two 5524212 he is flying a Savannah and he can put you on the track of some microlighters, I am out of the game for a while now, I've lost contact with the remaining enthusiasts.

There is a club in Bfn and PLENTY guys who fly from their farms. Many of these don't have internet access so would not be on here...., but folks do fly in the flatlands.... and definitely not dead.... (^^) (^^) (^^) (^^)

Hi Brian....

How about a neat article from you with regards to Microlighting @ Tempe for Microflight Africa.... I still compile articles for the Northern Cape and Free State and would gladly submit it to Alan Mac for publication.... How about it?
