Hey fellows in was so suprised to hear there was a posting about my soloing from Russel.

Thanks Demon my mate and thanks to all of you for all the good wishes.

Solo time now up to nearly 4 hours. Had a great 2 hrs today doing my own cross country to Vaal Dam and Parys.

Sorry Dish I never got lost. Weedy my friend. Good to hear from you.

As to my mate Mike Blyth. What a lovely airy in so many ways. Well done.

Safe flying mates
