I guess you are planning a visit to Vernon down in Munster?

James
Will let you know. Yes, we normally make a turn at Vernon. Dawie bought his Savannah from Vernon.
looking forward to seeing the two of you Johan. Hoping to have my Challenger at the field by the end of the month for ground runs to ensure all is 100%.
Regards,
Vernon.

Finally, she is at home. We assembled the Skyjeep at Kroon this weekend. Still needs some stripes but that can wait.

Final inspection today, then PFA and then, WE FLY!!!

She did her maiden flight, performs nicely. She also got some striping from Cyril. Need to sort the radio. No wing drop in the stall.
Air Hog logo to go on tail below the stripes :wink: :lol:
