Brakfast at Rand with my Mates

Postby Porra » Mon Feb 02, 2009 7:56 am

## Yesterday 3 of us went to Rand for a brekkie. ($$) ($$) We were airborn out of circus just after 07h15. Was quite interesting till we were on finals for 11 because of the clouds :mrgreen: but what an awsome flight. Thanks to KBPcobra, Frequentflyer and Andreas ( the new owner of 'CYV') for the brekkie and the awsome morning flight. =D* =D* =D*

Porra. (^^) (^^)

p.s Hopefully Stephan will post som pics today :wink:
