Last year that was the original plan,but we decided at Standerton that we will fly direct to Ladysmith as we could all make it on our 50l tanks as it is a 122 mile flip ##

RV12, why don't you fly direct to Ladysmith and join up with the others there.
At this stage, I am not in the trip because of a Project commitments at work but if I can make it, I am going to fly direct to Ladysmith and join the others for the last leg. I fly a Skyjeep 701.

You mean as oppose to landing at Standerton ? My wife is a smoker so she would like us to land at Standerton. :)

Hi,

We are about 5 trikes flying down to Margate around mid to late March requiring hangar space for about 2 to 3 nights.

Any contacts at Margate airfield ?
