Glenn really sorry about this , i know how you where looking forward to it , But i understand that your job comes first , I still hold thumbs tht you might make it , Otherwise you will have to fly your Gyro in the previous week and leave it at Gariep so that we can count it .FO Gyro wrote:Damn it, I've got a looming Airbus A340 conversion which looks like it's going to commence at the same time as Gariep (this is a 3 month process!). Work getting in the way of play!![]()

Paul, I've paid Forever Resorts R1312 already. If anyone wants a chalet with a double bed, you can take my booking, and pay me direct which would help me out.

Well so far work is on the back burner. I have booked and paid at Grariep.
Was hoping to have JP join me, but I have read the latest posts, whilst here in Manila. Will chat once back JP.
Johan, Braam, hopefully you are putting something together. I have ordered (Braam!!) the Nauta tank, which should be here by then!!!!.
Looking forward to this

Organise your solo nav for the Saturday and come through for the day - with the A380.

Put the gyro in the back to make up the numbers.

Ag no shuut ! Come on FO
Just let them show you where the autopilot is. Dont those things fly themselves? If you know where that goedjie is and how to switch the thing on you are A for away. You see ? Its simple. No more conversions needed. Gariep here we come

Alan you are flying down with me . I'll be your wingman.
The list she is growing. Come on guys ... gooi mielies !!! I know we were considering inviting Julius Malema to do our opening speech on the Friday evening and Modling offered to take him for a flip over the the dam. This will however not be possible anymore due to Kriek fever doing the rounds

I'm seriously thinking to join you guys, I believe I won't be able to fly a gyro, but if you accept us in a PA28...
Who can I ask if there is still accomodation available for 2?

Ciao Aldo (abezzi)! Welcome to the forum!
Who says you won't be able to fly a gyro? Since you are learning already, you may have your licence by then!
You will be most welcome to fly in with a PA28 but first prize would be if you flew in with a Gyro.
Forever Resorts Gariep will still have place I am sure. You can contact their Central Reservations:
Tel: +27 (0) 12 423 5600
Fax:+27 (0)12 423 5610
Email: info@foreversa.co.za
Their website is www.forevergariep.co.za
Going to be great to have you and your wife join us!
