What are you doing?

[The Agent]

Jislaaaaik, no one is around, ok the cricket is now finish, what happened that is of aviation interest or as amatter of fact anything interesting.

I cannot believe I said "K@K weather " this morning and I did not complain. Since Thursday I have been flying my gat off and it was lekker to take abrake today watch the GP, two movies and the cricket, bliksem that was good.
But now all of that is over and I need to speak to my china's.

Something that did happen on Saturday was that the sky from the east towards Kittyhawk was very busy and a couple of the bliks just came flying by with not to much on the radio. BUT ME had my eyes open WIDE and I fink I saw them all. Isaw eriies where the pilot said they were at 5800 ft and I was at 5300 and they came through below me. Ok it looks good BUT, I know your eyes must allways be open and it felt like FAJS in the morning.
OK enough bitching I trust that all landed safely.

Still no plane but the cricket was sensational. I did not give them a chance, but they showed great guts.....

Think they should go for it same way in tests as we have battled to make 400 against the Aussies

I saw it last night and it was brilliant. If you take the logic from Scully that a barefoot waterskier will remain on the surface as long as he is being pulled faster than say 30 km/h and that the skier has no lift, now take any plane travelling at 60 to 80mph, that has sufficient lift to keep itself in the air, you should quite happily run along the surface. Obviously you dont want the drag to slow you down too much.

Also as he mentioned the biggest danger is not to do it on glassy smooth featureless water surface or to use your reflection as as indicator as to how far above the surface you are since your reflection appears twice as far away as the water really is.

You guys must see the Russian aerobatic guy with his plane rated at +13, -12 G's. He built a plane that he says you cant "broke" and he throws it around the sky just to prove it. Amazing. :D

OK so who is gonna record this for us PLEBS that do not have DSTV??

Willing to donate a tape or DVD to the cause
