VERY well done Sire - I'm sure there aint many better places to spend 3000 hours (well, maybe.. :roll: )

Enjoy the next 3000 !

Barry, How many 1000 ft flares has Grant shot at you in those 3000 hours? LOLOL that will be an interesting stat. You have been an inspiration to the Microlighting comunity, always lending hands, knowledge and lots and lots of fun. Since meeting you on the paw paw run in Kaapmuiden on my dads 5000 meter run way to some good dops at Numbi I have never had a bad time when you were involved. Keep it safe and fun and hope to see you soon... maybe Oshkosh? jamie

Nice one Oh Demonic One. (^^) (^^)

How many touch and go's on speeding bus roof tops, swopping cold cokes with speeding boats - man you do tell lovely stories. vhpy vhpy They do all start with the truth though - "One day we were flying and .... " vhpy vhpy

Keep on walking, I mean flying Demon.

What about these costs;
maintenance
hangarage
ATF's
club fees
insurance
medicals
MISASA
fuel to and from airfield
accommodation on fly outs
etc ?

Still the best fun ever!
