Where is your strip?

Postby Tumbleweed » Fri May 26, 2006 2:10 pm

Hi,

We're looking for a couple new strips around 100km radius of Secunda to fly to.

East Rand, south or east of Pretoria, platteland e.t.c.

Nothing fancy, no fly -in ( would be nice) no need for fuel e.t.c. Just list

co -ordinates,
specifics,
Breakfast or coffee / braai or skottel available / ablutions.

If not, we'll bring own braai / 'chop n' dop ....er nescafe. We'll even manage around the toilet.

If you plan to flying, no need to play host.

Let's start a Saturday 'Micro meander'

Thanks C205, being there, had the boeri roll. The guys got a shock when we were there before them, but nice crowd.

Where's all the other patches you guys frequent?

Hi Agent.

Was intending to fly to Rhino, via Micrloland Saturday, but after almost hovering in the wind :twisted: diverted to Springs.

Downloaded gps, leg into wind = 35m.p.h. average, tailwind average 68m.p.h. :o
