Just picked the co-ords on Google earth, don't have Francois's number though, fantastic guy, fly's flips for the tourists at Sodwana.
R100.00 for the plane and R100.00 per person per night to sleep in his hanger, well worth it.

This past Saturday morning, WhiskeyFoxtrot and I did some flying in the clouds. Here are some pics of the flip. It was amazing. Had a thick cloud base of about 200ft thick just to the north of our airfield with some opening to the South. At about 5800ft it was open and we went playing in the clouds. Every now and then flew a little to the south or just popped throught the thick base to check possitioning and then back up for more flying. It was amazing to say the least. Will check with Whiskeyfoxtrot to send some more pics

Great photos everyone!

A few more from the Zebula fly-in, I did not have my normal airshow camera/lens there but I managed to take a few photos with my "mik en druk"

It was a great fly-in!
