Swartkops AFB and Microlight pics

Postby pietmeyer » Mon Jan 03, 2011 4:59 am

I got my magazine with all the pics of the Swartkops fly-in last week and must say that the day looked like lots of fun. Now the big question, when is the next one ?

McFly did all the planning and documentation etc last time and I know it was one hell of a job. I am willing to help with that this time so how about it guys, anybody interrested in such a day again but maybe more trikes vhpy

:) :)
Perhaps an attempt to brake the world rekord of the largest gathering of trikes can be organized on an occasion of this kind.
I noticed on TV that Johan Stemmit and a few others,(Noot vir Noot) tried to brake the existing record for Gyro,s. at a gathering elsewhere earlier this year..
Perhaps we can sommer brake that record aswell.!!!
This can Boost the effort to make a couple of bucks for who-ever.!!!

Ek dink die gyro rekord gaan definitief spat einde april by Gariep dam . In November moes almal van reg oor die land Stellenbos toe vlieg. Hierdie keer gaan dit baie meer sentraal vir die gyros wees. So ek stel voor dat indien julle so n event wil reel , maak maar seker dat dit n redelike sentrale plek is , en lyk my hoe nader aan die winter , hoe beter wat die weer aanbetref.

Record or not, I think another fly-in to Swartkops AFB would be fun. I missed out on the first one and from the photos in this month mag, an event that should not have been missed.

Last time the documents etc. was done on the last minute as the procedures etc for landing at the base was not known. If we start planning well in advance and give everybody time to file the forms, the event can be another great success. (^^) (^^)
