Lots of hanger space.

I have just found a lovely hanger for my trike. No, it is not between Jo'burg and Pretoria :twisted: but it is just as rare to find one in the stix as it is to find one any where else. A friend of mine phoned me yesterday and told me about an un-used shed on a friend's farm. I expected a weathered old building with halve a roof and no doors, but found a brand new HUGE hanger with cement floors and sliding doors, it has a huge cement pad out front. Runway options is endless and you can take off in any direction you want. I could fit about 16 trikes in there, so who is in :twisted: :twisted:

I was watching the windsock at White Gum Farm all weekend for the last two weekends in a row, waiting to go Solo so I can bring my trike home. My instructor lives 650 km away, so I am getting a bit edgy at the moment. It is costing me a fortune not to fly. :evil:

So, breakfast at my hanger on Saturday. I will supply everything, including the drinks for Saturday night's braai :twisted:
