Hi afskies,

Where can I get hold of this publication? Sorry if this is a daft question or if I missed something, but haven't seen it before on the shelves here in PTA.

Af-as-ku-sies - I am repulsed, offended and totally dismayed that you did not mention Aviators Paradise as one of your outlets!

Your sincere lack of respect for your biggest supporter repulses me and I demand thus that you bend before this here helmet to repent you sins!

Where do you want me to fetch ya next Sunday?

Lord Dark Helmet, Wish I could recommend Aviator's Paradise as the Nirvana of outlets :? but what can I do, :( I entrusted the precious copies to a certain helmeted flyer who consistently forgets to take them to the clubhouse... :roll: :P [0* ##
Hmm... :idea: Now let's see, what could he possibly tie a knot in to help him remember :?: :evil: :shock: :shock: :shock:

My right toe is bigger than my left... You gotta make a point though to tie sumthin onto it that would remind me that would be more important than the flag on muh left toe that reminds me to put da juice before I go up!

Retrospectively - the footage of me going up in ZU-KWiK has the camera doodling around me neck and FORTUNATELY the suitable point of attachment was hidden by some long shorts and the Ball crusher had more than enough stage time! (or was I in short longs?)

Make your own assumptions...

Demon - how much would you pay for a 24/7 guard to make sure ZU-KWiK is safe from DH? I am sure we can come to some sort of compromise - ZA is all about compromise and all and all..

ZU-KWK is awesome and it really was amazing to sit as PAX. Demon. You just make me want to fly more, and more... THANKS!

Hi Trixie

It was really nice to have showed you our Laser Airfield on Friday. Hope you enjoyed the :roll: company as much as we enjoyed yours. :D

Hope to see you there more often now.

Aha, Splitter, it was a great introduction to Laser - an exhilarating flip in FLY with Gaylord Focker, followed by a couple of cold ones around the braai fire - seems like a really 8) bunch of guys you've got there. Thank you for the hospitality and !!!! you'll definitely find me popping in from time to time :D

Hi Trixie,

I went to the post office today and I must say that I am very disappointed with my back copies of African SKIES……

I was looking forward to a newsletter type magazine printed on poor quality paper and some half backed articles by someone that did not know a gooseneck from a ham sandwich.

What I got was an international quality, high informative and well laid out magazine that is beautifully presented, highly informative and a whole lot of fun with great, well written articles for a very affordable price.

It is terrible when nowadays one get MUCH more than one bargained for…

I trust that you will rectify this oversight in the future…... :wink:
