Re: Something new for the microlight industry!!!
In fact, I will have loggers available for all interested to take part.
Come test your performance.
We will have to pre-select an altitude though. 5 200 ASL ?
30 second split take-offs from FABS. Clinb to altitude.
FAAP touch down. Stop. Turn around and go.
Rustenburg Tower turn point at 500 AGL.
FABS touch down. Loggers down loaded. Winner announced.
Throw into the equation: Fuel measured at T/O and landing.
Awaiting date

Re: Something new for the microlight industry!!!
How about setting up an independent panel to judge all those other selling points mentioned. I would like to see info like value for money, comfort, build quality, documentation quality, handling etc as well as the hard performance figures.

Re: Something new for the microlight industry!!!
To be quite honest Alex I really hope that your airies are better in all respects as you have been claiming for the last 3 years.
Fortunately I have never made these claims and have nothing to loose in this challenge.
Good luck. Now can we sent this date as the breakfast is calling and many people would love to finally see this settled.
See ya sooooon. G
