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

[mulderpm]

Jeepers Bundy, if you're up at 4 in the morning you should've come fly with us! We haven't had a lot of them, but this morning's WX was absolutely perfect. Hope we get a repeat performance on Saturday

So here's how my day starts...

00h30.... Get woken up by the two way radio..."mayday maday mayday"....get up, find a pair of pants and rush off to go chase some oxygen thieves who tried to break into a house close by. 12 cars racing up and down the neighborhood to find the bliksems who disapeared like a fart in the wind?

Get home...WIDE AWAKE now cant sleep. Bugger around on PC...waiting for the guys to pitch up so we can get to site early....

Wow Alan, if this happens to you every morning .... you must move meneer. From the evidence on this site, you are always up at 4

Looks like my appointment this weekend will be sorted...so will probably see you all on Sat. Will pay for me and D when we get there.

Cheers Paul.

Waht are you tyring to say? (all sorted mate)

I have catered for you on Sat Paul, we have enough. Made a rough stand for the white board to sit on top of the counter.

yes I am a compulsive early riser...but there is a reason.
It's the only time I have to get through my admin/quotes/paperwork. (wife and terrorist still asleep!) Evenings are reserved for family time and water (with a touch of fermented hops and barley)

[BeanCounter]

I don't want to jinx it, but the WX prediction for Sat looks as good as ever.
Are we going to make the most of it, fly early & far and back in time before school starts? Any suggestions where we gonna go?

Al, 5am is good, just need to get there by 4h45 for pre-flight .... if wx is good, a quick flight to Klip and back will be a nice 2 hours and a bit, if take off is at 5am we could be back at ML by 7h20 latest.

I can't make tomorrow, breakfast meeting at 7 at the Westcliff
I took Softness for a flip to the dam this morning though, smooth as silk all the way. Good weather days have finally arrived

I'm bringing my weber...dont trust that rust bucket Hans calls a braai

Fiezel, I'll play it by ear....I may decide to fly a shorter leg...lot's to get organised for later, I still need to service the plane and wash her as well

Stefan does not know what a bucket and soap is for.

You all have a super day tomorrow, I hope the weather holds out SUNNY for all of us....

Cheers for now...

Had such a lekker flight on Sat morning with Nick, Fiezel, and Johan/Stefan on my wing. The first "Fly and Braai" I actually got to FLY!

We will forgive Paul Mulder and Jaco who did not follow "ATC Instructions" Next time pay attention in the "briefing".

It was beautiful up at 6200-6500ft, we all had some good crosswind landing practice at Delmas and Faba too.

On the way to BHS Dam...

Nick sporting his version of a "Movember" (Put your head closer to the screen...maybe you can see it? hahaha)

Nick, Fanie and Stefan (the latter's first time at Delmas) with 3 beautiful Aquilla's, lined up and raring to go again.
