Hi All,
Is anyone aware of airfields or private landing strips for a trike in the Rust De Winter area?
We are planning to go there for the easter weekend and just thought it might be a nice flight there from Panorama.
Thanks,
H

Net so entjie noord van Rust de Winter -in Potgietersrus-is 'n runway met hanger spasie.
By Rust de Winter is wel so paar privaat runways.

Howzit Henry !
Maybe check the condition of the Rus de Winter runway before you fly out there. I havent been there in a long time, and am not sure how well it is maintained.
Not sure if the details are still valid, but give Eben Lategan a call on 0h wun too seven wun wun 0563.

Those are indeed the strips I know of too.... one thing though, I was told there is a gate in the middle of one of these strips??

Not 100% sure, as I have never landed at any of them.
Better just make sure before you go
PS, just remember that if you visit TC at Ntokozo....
you wont want to leave!!! 
Lekker plek daai, die geselskap is warm en die bier is koud(!!)
Enjoy your weekend

Elands Quads en Microlights is so 28 NM anderkant Rus de winter.
Die ko-ordinators is op my avator.
Die runway is so sag soos n babatjie se boud.!
Dit is tussen Potties en Rus de winter.
Waarom sukkel jy.
Stuur mammie met die motor en jy kom met die trike. Ons het wonderlike akkomodasie vir n gesin by ons. En hanger spasie vir jou rtike.
Groetnis.

You guys are welcome to make use of my runway. 500 meters long south east of Hans Kolver. 2527419S 2824711E. Steve Bosch 0827727486. If you want to land do a fly pass to ensure there is no game on the runway You are always welcome for a pleasant cup of coffee

Like said above, there is a few fields in the area. I am just outside the north-western corner of the GF2. You're welcome to land here, but phone first to point out possible obstacles. I am also friends with the other guys and can give you their phone numbers. I am 14 kms west/south-west, of the dam, Eben about 12kms, but I do'nt think he will allow landings. Peter is closest at about 4kms north of the dam. I landed there recently, and the fence across the runway was removed.
Regards.
