I just want to say thank you very much to the Juanita and Marius Kruger for the sponsor from SAGPA towards the Kalahari Bundu Bash. Both of you deserve a medal for your efforts in our flying community. We need more people like you.

Thanks again Juanita and Marius and Sagpa.
Regards
Eben and the Bundu Team.

Eben

Just to put things right, usually you say don't shoot the messenger, in this instance, don't praise the messenger, we just did the communication and conveyed the message, the SAGPA committee from the beginning promised you their support for this event. Hopefully we will see you there and we hope it is going to be a great success.

Ek spring more oggend eerste lug in my Gyro en sien baie uit. Sien jul Maandag oggend vroeg in Upington.................Eben hoop jy het daai 10 Springbokke gereel ek vlieg met .270 langs my op die seat! (^^)

Bietjie jag en dan BUNDU!!!!!!!

Departed from Morningstar this morning for Vredendal and Upington at 0815 however we were met with a dense fog bank and low level cloud cover abeam of Yzerfontein. Radio call ahead to Langebaan Airforce base also confirmed that they had only 800m visibility so there was no question but to turn around and head back at Morningstar where shortly after landing I received a message from my distraught wife to say that her Dad had suffered a heart attack compounded by multiple organ failure. I'm flying up to Bloemfontein this evening to be with her by his bedside. Sadly I will not be able to make the Bundu Bash :( I wish you all safe flying and much enjoyment of the Mocke's wonderful hospitality in their beautiful part of the world. Dave

Hi Almal,

Ek het gevra dat die manne self feedback gee oor hulle ondervinding van die Bundu, ons vertrou en glo dat dit 'n reuse sukses was en moet begin met die belpanning van 2015 se KBB.

Dankie aan almal wat deelgeneem het, sonder julle sal hierdie event nie kan plaasvind nie!

Groete
Yolande
