Weesgerus / Nylstroom airfields?

Postby pietmeyer » Mon Jun 15, 2009 6:56 am

Hi Guys

Are there any air strips close to Weesgerus resort in Nylstroom (Modimolle)? I am planning a weekend there but would like to take my trike for some sightseeing.

Thanks

Hi Piet

Nylstroom does have an airstrip. It's about 1 km outside the town on the way to Naboom,problem is....it's surrounded by squatters and not safe to leave your plane. I take it that you are airborne again! The last time I was at Weesgerus I did see a gyro flying,so maybe there is a strip on the game farm there.
How can I soar with eagles when I'm surrounded by turkeys

No, not airborne yet :cry: This trip will only be in October so I thought to check out the possibilities of flying in the area then. Now just the waiting game. I am hoping for the end of the month **

:) Hallo Pietmeyer. Gaan kyk na die entry laer af op hierdie forum genoemd 'Week-end Bushveld Destination'. Dit is die enigste plek waarvan ek weet waar jy vanuit jou slaapkamer na jou aerie in die hanger kan kyk.
Dit is gelee in die bosveld aangrensend aan die Loskop vallei en bied lieflike vlieg geleenthede. Kom na ons toe en ontmoet die vlieg gemeenskap van die Vallei.. Kom vlieg elke dag na ander interressante destinasies almal n uur of self minder weg van ons runway..Die koste is minimaal..Self catering hutte in lieflike bosveld klimaat....Kom ry quads as jy nie moeg gevlieg is...Baie avontuur....Brandstof sal jy nie n uur en half voor moet wag soos ek toe ek laas op Nylstroom geland het nie.. :)
Ek praat jou thaal...
