Bevrees dit lyk nie goed hier, in Rust de Winter of in Elands nie. Die ander manne staan nog by en ons gaan net na700 'n call maak. Ek dink daar is 'n olifant in die huis.Dankie in elk geval. Ons praat weer.

Dit reen nie meer net paar lae wolke, maar die wind waai 10 knope op na 15. Dit lyk die weer trek na Rust de winter/Eland se kant toe.

Groete

Chris it was only a pleasure and thanks to you guys for dragging Blue Max and me into the "new world" of technology. I'm busy writing my blogs for our Namibia trip on our website (http://www.opencockpit.co.za) and will see if and how those photos and videos on my first attempt on the Drift camera came out. Provisionally saw the clip where Moses parted the mist over the northern ridge of the Magalies to let us through and also my touchdown at BM's. Had a hairy attempted flight back on Sunday morning (**) (-) and an incredible one back this morning. vhpy Flo is giving CEX a thorough workover for the trip.

Goose en Jacques alles het gebeur op die ingewing van die oomblik nadat ons gekanselleer het en ons het die trip toe aangepak vol onsekerheid, maar het toe goed uitgewerk.

Paul baie dankie vir jou gasvryheid en moeite. As ons trip se aande om die vuur enigsins soos Saterdagaand se braaivleis stories gaan wees, gaan jy 'n You Tube sensasie word.

Ja dit was lekker.!!!
Gaan sien of ek n paar pics kan plaas.
Sorry Nicow ons is maar treurige fotograwe.!!
Sou Sondag middag trug vlieg Microland toe maar het halfpad omgedraai toe louis engine probleme ontwikkel.. (-) (-)
Weens n foutiewe radio hoor ek nie louis se radio roep nie en halfpad terug na Microland lees ek my boodskappe op my selfoon (wat met velcro op my pod vasgeplak is) dat Louis engine probleme ervaar het en REEDS veilig geland het op die plaas met n stotterende engine.. (**)
Die waarde van n sms boodskap onder sulke omstandighede het gehelp dat ' arme ' Louis nie alleen vir nog n nag op die plaas deurgebring het nie. (!!)
Meer oor ons naweek en voorbereiding vir ons Nam trip op my LOG by www.opencockpit.co.za :)

Paul jy moet dit nou reg kry en jy mag dit net se as jy Capt. Morgan of mnr. Walker in die gesig kyk: "Nastarovia, the noble name for Count Pushkin." as ek nou vir BM direk kan aanhaal. (^^)
