Dish under pressure tomorrow

Postby Thatchman » Fri Jul 17, 2009 3:59 pm

Dish, my 78th best friend will tackle his final flight test tomorrow morning at Rhino. (actually he is one of my very best mates)

Best of luck to you my Boooooi. (^^) (^^) I hope that the last 17 years of training during your licence will give you all the confidence and skill that you will need. :lol: :lol: The Fockership and I will be there to support you.

I really do hope that you pass because then you will not be too grumpy when WP give your team one up the chutney jar tomorrow afternoon. Otherwise you day is just going to go from bad to worse. (**)

I would like to start celebrating as early as possible tomorrow so may the force be with you China (^^) (^^) (^^) (^^) (^^) (^^) (^^)

Dish my boooi .... has it only been 17 years?? (Thatchman, please just check his log book as I am sure it has been longer!!) ## ## ($$) ($$) (**)

Wishing you all the best for your Flight Test and I know that it will go very well, I just fear for your safety afterwards if Thatchman and Gaylord are going to be there. (^^) (^^) (^^) (^^) (^^) (^^) (^^)

I will watch this space for photos, reports, copies of your log-book (duly signed) and the regular banter you can expect from this bunch.

You should have seen the bog boy shaking while he was waiting for the verdict.

Yes and I did have to eat humble pie as that F#%$%$@ing Geo Aplon stuffed it up for WP. Well Dish it was your day china. Happy for you.

PS - Agent nice to meet you..................and please, Gaylord is not my partner (**) . I like chicks..............a lot. :lol:

Dish had a nice flight back. Complained about getting bumped some over the Northern ridge but he is now a Pilooooot.

Hello Gentleman and others (thatch)

Yeeeaaaahhhhh - what can i say ??? Thanks to all involved, Julie - for being there and encouraging me, Udher for your patience, Gaylord, Thatch for being there for me whenever i needed you. Morph, Demon, Coyote, Basie, Agent Graham, Rudix, Charlie whiskey, Tracer, Weedy, Kevin Hopper, Dale, Piet, dark helmet, Big D, Wart and everyone else who stood by me with advice and assistance all the way through this process. Thanks to Martin and Thatch for carting me around for the better part of 18 months, the experience i gained from all of our flights together was invaluable...

One day i will write a book on the events that led up to saturday, it has been a journey and its come with its share of frustration BUT its been phenomenal and worth every minute. I have taken a massive amount of advice and gained a lot of knowledge from this site, so thanks to all who supported.

Yip, Saturday was a very very good day - Please refer to my mate thatch's post in which he refers to

" really do hope that you pass because then you will not be too grumpy when WP give your team one up the chutney jar tomorrow afternoon. Otherwise you day is just going to go from bad to worse" -

sucks to be you buddy because we cleaned your clock, and yes the L should be there.. (**) (**) (**) (**) (**)

see you all in the skies very soon. ($$) ($$) ($$) ($$) (^^) (^^) (^^) (^^) (^^) (^^) (^^) (^^) (^^)

> > > > Well done Boeta,
I hope that the '17' years was not that longggg'

I will try my best not to break your 'record', I will try to sqeeze in @ 16Y & 11Mnths, and leave the 'record' intact.
As it goes @ the moment, your 'record' is in danger??

Groetnis,
Hannes.
