At long last the weather is giving us a break! Dudes, tomorrow is FLYDAY! I'll take of at 0600 tomorrow from Potties - maybe at 05h30 - I am planning a few LONG legs for the weekend! See you guys in the air! Microland guys - I'll be there around 09h00. I expect coffee.

From there onto Blue Max, and back to Potties in the afternoon. Enjoy your flying tomorrow! enjoy it while it lasts! (-)

Howdy Asterix!

What weather forecasting tool are you using? Off Windguru I have tomorrow very much as a NO-FLYDAY!! Here is FASI (Springs) - solid cloud and rain!! To me it looks like you'll be IMC before you leave the ground!! ## ##

Asterix just admit that you did not know what day it was. I think you are smoking too much local stuff up there in Potties now (**) (**)

Now you will have TWO stroh rums at Numbi (^^) (^^)

Nah, sorry Asterix, catching me out is me asking where I can join you on the flight!! :lol:

I think you input 2011 in your forecasting tool! :oops:

Down here we are so close to the weather we even give individual clouds names! :wink:

Like, "Josephine was overhead the dam earlier . . . . is she still there or has she broken up and dissipated?"

Asterix, I thought yellow wings were not supposed to be scared of clouds or rain, not to mention gust fronts ## vhpy

John, "Josephine" is moving eastwards and the sun's started to shine on a beautiful weekend (P.S. I see a couple of nice photos are posted on Avcom of us at RV4ker commemoration fly-inn last weekend).
