Nogmaals baie dankie aan al die Mocke`s daar in Upington, dit was een van die lekkerste maande in my lewe. Opleiding in Upington is in n klas van sy eie, 4.9km runway, fantastiese weer, min (air) verkeer en uiters goeie instrukteurs met n wonderlike produk. Ek het so deel geraak van jul familie dat dit moeilik was om afskeid te neem. Die RAF het hom op ons trip van Upington na Alldays net weereens bewys.
Die Bosveld is sowaar n ongerepte vlieg bestemming en ek is bly om dit te “explore” in die betroubare RAF 2000. Vir die wat wil wegbreek vir n naweek, almal welkom in die hartjie van die Bosveld, 1.5km teer aanloopbaan ( S22 40'45.3” E29 03'15.1”) 2km vanaf Alldays en baie lodges beskikbaar. Skakel my gerus 082 786 7616.
