Wow! What an awesome experience! vhpy Mcfly, you are a genius :!:
Even though I couldn't fly in, it was a real sight to see so many microlights together at the same time at an airforce base!
Lets hope we get the opportunity to do this again, and this time I can fly in! ##

Yep, mine is a Windlass as well. Haven't had a chance to fly my plane yet tho, that's why I couldn't fly in :(
I hangar at Microland. Should have my conversion done in the next 2 weeks, depending on which school has a Windlass, but I stay in randburg and am looking for hangar space closer to home.

It is truly an awesome site to see so many trikers together! Could not fly in, but rode through on the bikes, so did make it at the end. Lets see if we can get the same type of response for Panorama Fly-In. Maybe all the flying clubs would like to do this at some stage in the year, much like the biking fraternaty, and raise some funds for the sport!

Hope that there will be a next time for such an event.
