Heya
Where are all the Crosswinds trike pilots
Since I have been flying there,I only met Willem a.k.a Nacho...there are about 6 trikes in the hangar...two flying..you'll never guess who

the rest gathering dust
I fly every weekend...mostly Saturdays,but if I cannot fly Saturday,then I fly Sunday...and I must say,Sunday was awesome...a real taste of winter flying
So come people...let's enjoy what we have all worked so hard to achieve....

Hi Madman
There is always action at Kroon. Myself and Big D old flying buddies. Visit
www.microflyers.co.za website and check out their forum for what action planned for the Saturdays. We have been to Crosswinds last Saturday to visit Trevor and my T/Bird that he is working on. Hope to see you this Saturday.
Safe flying

Howzit madman, hopefully Darkhelmet and I will be collecting my trike from Jenya at Petit on Saturday, I will thus be flying but it will be the ferry flight home to Aeroden
Maybe we should organize a trip or 2 over holidays coming up - Crater, is cool yip - And Air Hog knows all the nice flying spots that way such as the swamps

Nah, DH will drop me by car, we can definately go visit Nkwasi and the boys at Petit at a later stage if you are keen, Pinedene route is great fun

The Pink Ladys spare Tank will be replaced soon with a Pod - It is the original tank the Trike came with

I had a small Operation and well think i was better off bfore the op
But as soon as enough time hs passed i will go out to Aeroden and do a few Bumps and Runs

I don't know why you did it Tailspin, your ears were not THAT big before the op, and I felt safe flying with you - If we lost the wing you could flap us down
Joking
Hope you recover soon pal

You are Lucky i was told not to pick up anything Heavy
The missus is ver happy i am not able to fly - but while i was home i Upgraded the TV and all that so now she is moaning i am making too much noise with all the new toys
Only thing i am missing are the Meds - now that was a good way to go Flying in the comfort of your own bed

But yea look for me soon in the Skys above Aeroden !
