Even if transponder equipped, who is going to remember to squak 4600? :shock: (WHEN the box is active... um, another thing to try and check? Unless you HAVE to go there, I recommend stay clear, why not?

A little off-topic I know but can someone clarify this for me?

This is off the WCMC website and agrees with the image below off the AIP S067-10 describing Stellenbosch GF FAD69 that the Southern tip of the FAD200 conrresponds with the southern tip of FAD36 around Koeberg. Right?
FAD200_2.JPG
Now, ... is the map of the area below still the old FAD200 or am I bombing straight from Morningstar to Big Bay on 125.8 through the Delta 200 when I should be on 124.4? I seem to think the southern boundary is the road from the N7 to Melkbos. Am I wrong?

I dont want to assume anything... ( :lol: as a wise instructor pointed out to me once when I assumed he would know the ground frequency at FAJS and I had to ask the tower... he wrote on his clip-board ASS/U/ME and hung his head in shame...
:?

The bottom pic do not represent the current boundries. That is only to show the "box" (what ever, when it's open :shock: :shock: when ever) for contermanskloof as per the AIP.

Anyway, your understanding of the freq is correct.

No worries Morph, encountered a white Robbie west of the field on 124.4 the other day and thought maybe I had got it wrong. Thankfully it seems not :lol:

So this is where it started vhpy . I say this because in the near future when every microlight in the Western Cape will need a transponder i have the history of where it all began vhpy .
