Unfortunately I will not be able to leave work early to fly with you all, but I'm going to try my best to be there at 14h00 when they land (^^)

Fantastic, awesome, unbelievable achievement (^^) . What a pleasure and privelage to have been there to welcome them home. Great formation flying with 2 GT 450's (Big G and Straydog), Chipmunk and Cessna with live radio on the PA system. Not to mention a Bell Chopper and photo ship piloted by Marc Gregson. WOW, great job guys - cant wait to see the footage. There were 4 trikes, 3 choppers, a few fixed wings (including Karl Jensen's beauty) and many, many people who drove in. There was also some humour when Mike's brother and his mate jumped onto the Sling in their birthday suits - absolutely no kit apart from two SA flags :o vhpy . Also a flash of breasts from the Bell Jet Ranger :lol:

Once again, well done guys and thank you for the gripping entertainment over the last 40 days - I hope your order book overflows (!!)

Not so sure what was humourous about streakers, especially if there were kids around (which there was) and if it offended people. Maybe they were just two idiots who weren't getting their share of the attention.
