Mike, James & the Team are flying around the world !!

[Ian]

Phew !

I was real worried about this leg...

[Boet]

You guys have more balls than brains. Congrats. Wish you a safe flight!

[Morph]

The guys have safely landed at Kuala Lampur after dodging some storms

[Peg Leg]

Hey Morph, they getting closer to your neck of the woods - damn fine effort thus far!!!

[Morph]

Absolutely, nearly home, fantastic effort

[Nkwazi]

I see they"ve decided to give Sri Lanka a miss and have instead re-fuelled and set track to the Seychelles. When they land there they would have flown 31 hours with a short fuel break - eish.

[Jimbo]

Safe on the ground in Seychelles noon our time I see, they must be knucking fackered. A mere 4000km to go to Springs via Kruger, over 90% done.

[WillemG]

Seems they will be arriving at Springs on thursday, not sure what time yet...

[Trikenut]

Does anyone know what intercom the guys are using?
Thanks,

How about we get as many guys as possible to meet up with them overhead Delmas and fly in one of the biggest Sling and Trike formations ever, into Springs. Sure we can keep up with a bit of serious bar pulling with them close to the stall. Heeee Haaaa!!!!!! So where are the manne van staal

Who's in

[Nkwazi]

I'm in, what time should we meet at Springs or Delmas. I think that would be really fitting - seeing that Mike started with trikes.

[ZS-NEL]

Brett, jou doring!
Lets see how many can make it. We verify their take off time at Kruger and plan to meet at Delmas accordingly. When they are 10 miles out we all get airborne from Delmas strip and "carry" them to Springs.

[Trikenut]

I think that would be really fitting - seeing that Mike started with trikes.

I'm sure Mike is still very much a trike guy! I'm sure he still loves them, and will continue to do expeditions in his one. (Aerotrike Cobra - ZU-SKY)
The fixed wing was probably a better idea for going around the world! I think after 13-14 hrs of flying the trike have been out of fuel for a while, and I don't think that your body would feel to good!
Good luck with this!
Cheers,

Hey, c'mon guys - no takers for this exciting event???

[Nkwazi]

PHEEWW!! They are overhead land in Mozambique now. They can remove their life jackets for the last time!! Excellent, excellent.
