Never use a Tar road in an emergency. safer to land in the bush :)

Expect the unexpected, only in Africa.

Have you started with your training yet?

Hi Peter

No it is not my new gyro, I just like the colour and the specs of this gyro, not to talk about the shape, a real bullet!!
It is a NZ gyro called the Helithruster with a 165hp powerplant.

I will, probebly buy a MT03, that's what we are training on at the moment, but who know what tommorrow brings?
Hav'nt been training for 2 weeks with new regulations from CAA, will get into the air again early Ocktober.

We should meet at Kitty Hawk again, have lunch or something!

Regards to the family

Hi Peter

Would have been great. Unfortunately next two weekends family commitments - going to your part of the country.

Hi Low Level & Peter

I made a topic under "Training", CAA & Training. Aparrently this is regulations that is not inforced properly
and the flight school is going to do it right, for obvious reasons.

The flight schools paper work was updated ect and we'll be flying again early next month.

And Peter, if age is the reason, I will do the heavy leg work at CAA, then you
will only have light leg work at CAA :!: ## ## ##

Fly safe
