Pictures look GREAT.

Don't you think it is time to remove ZU-EJX from your signature. (It is no longer at FASH)
:P

And your name :oops:

Keep posting pictures. It will be of the Falsbay area only as DUO can not fly any further........

Great guys! It is the sharing of these photos, uploading of video clips and experiences that sells the sport. That is how I got hooked googling the Internet for this stuff after noticing what a Gyro was at an airfield. It keeps my spirit positive, you know; specially after those rollercoaster emotions following shitty practice landings and paying that bond… I need to visualise the goal..

Then coincidently discovering these oaks flying over the same ocean,

or should I rather say… caught red-handed:

Good instructors always speak well about all flying machines.
Bad instructors speak badly about machines they cannot fly.
