Pietermaritzburg Microlighters

[pietmeyer]

Anybody flying in PMB. Will be working in the area on Wednesday 10th September and would like to stop by an airfield just to look arround. Sure beats sitting in the B&B. Rather be looking at some planes.

Thanks

Have you tried Lightflight near Cato ?

[Dobbs]

Cato is no more as far as microlights is concerned - suggest that you take a drive to Light Flight, close to Cato, lot of activity and very friendly people, about 20 minute drive from Pietermaritzburg.

Yeah,

Pop into Lightflight. Great bunch of guys there and nice selection of planes. During the week you should see Wayne Bond, Geoff Dyer(owner), Noel or Brad. Grab some coffee and if Mildred is there you can get something to eat as well.

Cheers,

Thanks for the info guys. Will stop by there on Wednesday afternoon. I am working in PMB for the day and then have to drive through to Durbs. Will be there untill Friday and the long drive back.

If you are coming from PMB take the Cato Ridge turn off. turn right back over the N3 and travel for exactly 3.5km. The driveway will be on your right hand side. There is a board that says KAMBA FARM and an old white wall with Light Flight written on it. Up the driveway through an avenue of trees and you will find the Hangars at the top. If you have mud flaps on your vehicle drive slowly as there is an Australian Cattle Heeler dog (Shiloh) who loves pulling them off vehicles.

Cheers,

Hi Piet,

Weather outlook for today & tomorrow is garbage.

Thanks for the invite. Unfortunately my work is intervering with my flying time. Need to be in Durban early Thursday morning and back to Pretoria on Friday. Would have loved to stay over.

What time will you be at Light Flight? I will try and make it around the same time so that I can join you for a cuppa!!

[pietmeyer]

Sorry Wort

Had to be in Dbn by 15h00 so never had time to stop by lightflight. I will be in KZN again early November and then will definitely check out Eva's field as well as Lightflight. Thanks for the invite.
