I am driving through on Saturday and wanted to bring a buddy that thinks of starting to fly but is not a MISASA member yet. As far as I know, this show is not open to the Public, so what now.

Can't he come? :?: :?: :oops:
Air Hog as JB says...what better way to introduce potential future pilots to the sport than at Tedderfield! I have invited two such friends myself (^^)

We went away on holiday for 10 days and when we landed back at O.R just to see the bad service and the lack of respect from our perviously disadvantaged friends we wanted to turn around and get straight back on the plane ##

No worries we will make a plan, my plane won't be needing it till March in any case vhpy

Just glad that your wife is ok ## vhpy

We will take trade ins on "old" intercom systems, fly in with the old and out with new. We would prefer if pre ordered though as we only have a trailer.

HOW TO FLY THE CIRCUIT AT TEDDERFIELD AIRPARK

• APPROACHING THE CIRCUIT
When approaching the airfield and you want to join the circuit, call your position and intentions from at least five miles out at 6 500 ft at the current QNH. Then initiate a descent to the point where you will join the circuit so as to end up at 6200 ft.
(Hint: talk to other pilots in the circuit to establish which runway is in use or simply listen out)

• APPROACH FROM THE NORTH
The approach from the North is from the North Western side of the airfield, not directly over Hippo Quarries. The approach is shown on our map by the green line which would allow you to either join on a left hand base for runway 11 or a right hand downwind for runway 29.

When approaching from the West, aim to be about one or two miles north of our downwind leg, which is directly above the R554. The approach is shown on our map by the orange line and allows you to either join on a left hand base for runway 11 or a right hand downwind for runway 29.

When approaching from the East, aim to be one or two miles north of our downwind leg, which is directly above the R554. The approach is shown on our map by the purple line and allows you to join either a right hand base for runway 29 or a left hand downwind leg for runway 11.

When approaching from the South, maintain 6500 ft and fly directly over the clubhouse and then descend to 6200 ft to join either a left downwind leg for runway 11 or a right downwind leg for runway 29. The approach is shown by the light blue line on our map

Should you be returning from a cross country and you are not able to determine wind direction from smoke in the area or from the use of your GPS or because there is no activity at the airfield, then revert to the standard joining procedure and call at about 5 miles out that you will be joining overhead at 6500 ft. Once overhead, you will be able to decide which runway to use and will fly towards the downwind leg, which is directly over the R554, aiming to arrive on downwind at 6200 ft and complete the circuit in the normal manner. When this is the case, you may over fly the threshold on runway 11 when approaching from the West or the threshold on runway 29 when approaching from the East, but always at 6500 ft.

Hi all,

Because we've had such a big response to the T shirts, we were unable to cope with the volume of orders.
If your shirt is not ready at Tedderfield tomorrow, just let me know a delivery address where we can send them to.

See you tomorrow!
