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 !

:oops: :oops: :oops: :oops: Gosh, I am a bit embarrassed ! The Battlefields is actually finished as we speak. SORRY ! Ignore my last post on this.

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 !

You make a "sandwich board" that says "Hi, I'm Bennie Vorster. Who are you?" and hang it around your neck. Everyone else will automatically introduce themselves. Simple. vhpy
Benna........you see what happens now when you ignore my sound advice? Next time, listen to Unca Duckie please.
