Secunda Airshow and Fly in 20th August.

[Blue Max]

R40 is nothing.!!
Cant believe there are pilots complaining!!

[Tumbleweed]

Hot showers at the amo workshops and ample ablutions will be available.

Will also have a roaring 'kuier' bonfire, over twenty braais next to the beer garden and not too far from the big screen showing the Springbok Aussie game.

Will post a list of 'participating' Bed & Breakfasts soon.

This is promising to be a good one...Oom Paul, gan jy ons join in Secunda?

So Far If Tailspin gets his paperwork in order, there will be 5 trikes fying in from the Aeroden, Crosswinds, Klip and Heidelberg area.

This is going to be great....

Blue Skies.......

[Thatchman]

A gang from Rietfontein will also be there loaded with tents, Sleeping bags, Old Brown for the cold night and Focker will have his blow up doll.

The Dish is a distinct extra in the Duck.

So far myself, Focker, Wild child, Dish, Beetle Juice, Ratman and Big G.

[Tumbleweed]

Awesome.

Get Big G to bring a one man tent and we'll reserve a special spot on the cemetary fence so that he can awake the dead.

Shared a room at Battlefields and that snoring just put a complete damper on any romance.

[Mogas]

Hot showers at the amo workshops and ample ablutions will be available.

August berg winds permitting I will be there!

[Blue Max]

Ek verlang na al my trike pelle.
Hoop hulle is almal daar.
Het vanmiddag vir die eerste keer in 4 weke met die trike gevlieg...Daar is niks wat so lekker vlieg soos n trike nie.

The organsers have gone full out.

Anyone's family with just a mild fascination for aviation, there's something for everyone.

The one school is handling the kid's play park and are going all out- massive jumping castles, bull rodeo rides and (that thingie where you climb in the plastic ball and run around and fall in the name of fun)

The other school is on a massive ticket sales drive and will manage the car park for their benefit.

For the toddlers there's a rent- a- nannie where the high school girls will relieve you of your brats and supervise colour-in, games e.t.c.

Amongst the extensive crafters market is quality furniture and interior decor exhibits, wine tasting and sales, teenager fashion clothing sales e.t.c.

There'll be an ABSA atm on site as well as the bosluise- the Blood bank (not the sperm bank). I presume donate before you get pissed.

If anyone has extensive videos of aerobatic/ aviation interest video clips I'd love a CD copy to play on the big screen after the rugby game.

A list of Guest houses will be posted as soon as I can get them to share their precious secret information.


Only 2 weeks to go.

[The Big V]

Sounds exciting! I'll be there!

[Tumbleweed]

Good day,

As per telephone conversation, South African Weather Service is willing to participate in the Secunda airshow.

We will appreciate a hangar space for our information exhibit, as well as giving weather briefings to the pilots before the airshow. Usually we do briefings on the evening before and also on the day of the airshow, you will update me when you require them.

Warmest regards
