Re: Battlefields fly in.
Refer my forum request on "AIRFIELDS SOUTH OF NEWCASTLE".
Went their on Wednesday last.
Beware,
1. Fog this time of the year from Standerton to 20 NM short of Newcastle.
2. Fly underneath it and you should have a 2 NM viz through it and be fine.
3. Not worth going over the muck.
4. AVGAS at Newcastle now R 14,27.
5. Was not affected by runway maintenance. In fact did not see any.
Enjoy battlefields !

This is what typically happens when you loose track of time. Just spent a week in the Kruger Park without cell phones !
Time then passes without diaries !

Bennie,
Next time we come to Battlefields you are gonna have to down a drink and then owe us each one for not introducing yourself.
