Awesome Flying !!

Postby Chaz » Fri Jul 07, 2006 11:44 am

Heya Folks :!: :!: :!:

Had the privlige of flying for an hour last night doing circuits and bumps from Waterkloof Airforce Base over Pretoria Central in a C-130. I had the honour of standing in the cockpit during taking off and landing. The view was aboslutley awesome :D :D :D.

18000Hp and in that hour we burnt 6000Ltrs of fuel. An awesome machine and one of the old faithfuls' of the SAAF.
