Super smooth flying to all the tailwinders in 2014 (^^) I Hope to attend the next braai, I have been relocated to Singapore for a new offshore vessel construction team...awaiting visa. Hopefully i'm still in the country come braai time.....I must fit in a cross country to microland for an early morning flight with "the manne", maybe over the next 2 weekends? Weather was good in Secunda, I've managed no less than 8 hours for December :) Sadly, no pilots to join in the fun...Miss u all!

Hallo, Hallo, Hallo manne!! Balls van die beeste vir almal in 2014!!

Twee maande laas gevlieg, NOT GOOD!! Niks gaam me weghou van ML Saterdag nie. Ek dink ek gaan vanmiddag net 'n draai daar maak om te kyk of ons aerie nog daar is.

Nee, ongelukig nie. Daar is net te veel ander dinge aan die gang en die ouens is n' bietjie broke na die December vees tyd.

Weer lekker gevlieg vanogend. Moes net vir Bateleur wys waar die throttle is, en hoe om die radio aan te sit. vhpy Lekker kruis windjie gehaad met landing en dan ook nog daai ## ## Cropsprayer oor die GFA (mielie land) ....very short finals vir my. Hy se nogal vir my "I have visuals on you"....wat help dit?, hy zig zag dan, op 150ft, oor my final approach path.

See you all tomorrow. Stef & myself will be bringing something to BRAAI. Anyone else, welcome. (^^)

Great flight this morning! My roes is af gevlieg en ek is reg vir aksie!
More oggend lyk weer goed. Klein braaitjie en halwe biertjie klink vir my in orde vir more na die vlieg.
Robbie, are you finished with your licence? Or how long still?
Manne, daar het 'n HOOTERS oop gemaak hier in Pretoria Oos. Ek dink ek gaan bietjie hooters en 'n burger geniet vanmiddag!
