WX prediction for Saturday looks favourble (windfinder.com). I need to patch a tear on my leading edge before Sat. abd WX good, then I am flying to Klip. I know Jaco also indicated to go. Aero57 guys can stop at FABA and we can all fly together?

Re: Klipriver family bring n braai day 10th Nov
If we start getting airborne around 5h00, it will take approximate 10 -15 min for all 5 trikes to be airborne, flight time 25-30 min, will be overhead Microland around 5h45. What do you think?

Alpha,
I have based on an average cruise speed of 55mph,27.2 miles, it will be 30min flight from microland to Ergo slimes, should we leave microland at 5h45, we will be there at about 6h15-6h20, all depends on the wind

Alan, you must get your own aerie. I have one for you, Aerotrike safari, 503, got quite a few hrs on but in excellent condition. The guy, Hans Muller, you know him, will take R25 000 or even less.Bundy wrote:Damn Freddie, I cant make it I'm afraid.![]()
