Reg so Andries.

I am going to do a long flight to Renosterkop on Sunday. Sort of a compensation. :cry:

Ok now that flyaway to Barbeton has been cancelled. We (Sharon and I) are driving down anyway to have a weekend away as we have paid for accommadation already. I think Paul Meanwell is also going to drive down. We have two spare beds available in our Chalet. Anyone keen to use them give me a call (084 359 0276). A weekend in the Eastern Transvaal sounds good even if there is no flying.

The weather in Barberton is superb! Warm with a light breeze, and a few fluffy high level clouds. 2nd Frostie on the table...

Great that you guys still made it....even though all the way at a very low altitude. :lol:

The wind is pumping here in Gauteng, ENE 70 deg, 14 Knt, gusting 23 Knts, just as windguru predicted. Would have just crossed the Magaliesberg by now...backwards.. ## ##

The wind picked up here too in the afternoon. No good for a microlight run along the Kruger border.

The beer is cold though!
