If you download gogo tools you get 50MB of webspace on the net. You can deposit pics or videos(thats why I have it), but it adds toolbars to your internet browser, which you need for upload. :!:

Try it you can always uninstall :)

Gert, why not rather post a reply to each one rather than editing it every time?

I like your post and also like the graphic you post - personally i would like to see a sort of log of all your endeavours, after all - you go thru the effort of making them all - so share em all!

Why work when you can fly! A lovely day in Cape Town but lots of smog - the payoff for no wind. Flew over Koeberg at 2500asl - quite a view of those pressure cookers and the stream of water pumped into the sea. Looked at the new development north of Blouberg, and am glad I don't have to join all that traffic in the morning. Then did a Morningstar touch and was on my way to Altona when I remembered Contermanskloof. Glad I did the Contermanskloof fullstop - have been hearing a lot about the southeaster over those koppies. Will find out on a windy day. Off to Altona and around Paardeberg for a touch and go at Malmesbury before returning back to Wintervogel, but not after doing a low pass over some cows. Hulle melk weggeskrik.

Took Aneen for a trip - unfortunately windy and almost had her breakfast through propellor. Will try again on a less windy day, or look for new wife.

Is the fairing worth getting Gert? Do you get any more speed?

Been unable to get to ZU-DVE due to our Cape weather. In the meantime compiled a small video of my first week:
