Scribbles,

I got back this morning after a most enjoyable break down at the south coast and with much anticipation :P that my copy of the latest 'African Skies' that was published early December would be in the mail........

Great was my dissapointment when there was still no sign of it :( :( :(

PLEASE could you give me an indication when I can expect the mag in the mail as I was not fortunate enough to have it hand delivered as was the case with other subscribers :x .

Regards

Subscriber copies have been posted, and I generally carry current & back copies with me if you need.
Subscribers who signed up through Aero Club for 2007 have been credited by Aero Club for the last 3 issues of 2007 = R75. Aero Club will not be collecting subscription fees obo African Skies for 2008.
To subscribe direct, renew or query, pls email or call me.

Leprachaun, direct subscribers pay per issue, not per annum - subs are carried forward so no one loses out. I've been replacing copies that have gone missing in the post free of charge and I also deliver personally wherever possible.

Hi Gert

Would you please be so kind and explain to me, in detail, what procedures I should follow to subscribe to African Skies. My admin skills suck and a few pointers would be great.

Dankie by voorbaat
:D
