Tribal Croc’s taking ZU-DBP home - Got my Licence

Postby Tribal Croc » Wed Sep 01, 2010 12:35 pm

Ok Guys here is the plan

If all goes to plan I will be doing my flight test on Friday morning :)

Then of to RAASA to get all the paper work sorted out ($$)

Then if the weather plays along we will leave Sunday morning from Aeroden towards Ntokozo Game Lodge ( ZU-DBP’s new home)

Who is all in :?: :?:

We can either do a breakfast if you guys want to fly back directly, or a braai and the fly back the afternoon

I need numbers by Saturday morning so that I can get everything sorted out (-)

Good luck Francois. I am sure that it will go well.

Doing the Dome to Dome cycle race on Sun so cannot make it. Maybe will try for an afternoon flight if I am not too stuffed.

Sorry did not stop to say howzit but did not want an IFR nite landing on our long strip at Rieties :lol: :lol:
