THE MICROLAND THREAD..."Home of the Tailwinds"

[Paul Meanwell]

Mervyn needed to confirm with Brian at Pyramid that he could accommodate us.

This is now confirmed, and the weekend is ON!



Let's hope the weather plays along for this one!

Booked for Pyramid!

Me booked ..... Ready to go....

[Frank Smallwood]

We are also booked in at Pyramid. We have had to take a 4 bed chalet as it was the only one left. Anyone else still looking for accommodation can use up the extra beds. Is there a plan to have a pre-trip briefing/meeting to agree route and re-fuel stops etc?

Cheers Frank

Hi Frank, Great to hear that you are definitly coming. Sounds like it is going to be full house.

Is there a plan to have a pre-trip briefing/meeting to agree route and re-fuel stops etc?

Mervyn normally has a pre-flight briefing on the Wednesday evenening before the trip. If last year is anything to go by, which I belive it is, we leave Friday morning first light for a fuel stop at Fairview (Carolina) and then on to Pyramid overflying Badplaas. Way back, on sunday morning, is fuel stop Arnot Power station and then Microland. So, Dionne, Fiona and Sharon driving together?

Yip. See you all at FASI.

Al (Bundy), are you still going to be my wingman?

[Paul Meanwell]

I'll be driving in and enjoying a beer or two.

Not worth the effort for a three minute flight from Brakpan!

Cheers!

[Bundy]

Afraid not Paul....I must work on Sat morning. Not sure if Stef is flying or not?...it's his week so his choice.

I'll go fly Sunday if the Wx looks good and if my half of the plane's available?

[Percy Smit]

I'll see you guys at FASI.. driving , unfortunatly radio /intercom problems on my aerie.... can only fit my newly purchased intercom system on sunday.

[mulderpm]

Afraid not Paul....I must work on Sat morning.

No problem. I will fly out and back and then most probably drive there again. Then I can have a beer.

Paul, you are so close, by the time your 912 is warmed up, it would have been quicker to push your gyro there and back.
