Hi Arnold

Tried to dig up and old post by Morph but cannot find it. But here is the file. Its Morphmans GPS waypoint file. Includes most of the fields in the western cape. Loads straight into a Garmin and google earth.

Yup, found it very helpful. When I did my dual cross-country used it for alternative landing strips. Inst. was impressed I somehow knew every strip along the way! :lol:

Arnold... you even know where Morphman lives now!!!

I think you have to download software from the Garmin website to open the file, gpx format used by Garmin I seem to remember. You can also go to Gert Coetzee's flight log, ZU-DVE Flight Log under Hangar Talk, he recently posted a trip in wich they visited most of the fields we have around us in one morning, all shown on a map and in a later post he kindly posted all the GPS coordinates for these fields.
