I fully understand I am also tired of you guys abusing my runway :twisted: :twisted: :wink:

I also think we must have a look at somewhere else the only thing the baby's delivery date is close and I won’t be able to leave Landy alone so it must be somewhere close for her to drive to. (-)

It seems like our comrade Asteriks has fallen victim to the struggle :arrow: waar is jy Vortexman :?: :?:

His laptop disappeared at Microland after our flight planning session so I suppose he will be off-air for a while. :evil: :evil: :evil: :evil:

We sat in the lapa to plan our Nam trip and went for a short flight afterward. Somewhere between us taking off ans landing his laptop went awol from his car >;((( >;((( >;(((

The guys at work (CSIR) have let me know they received a briefing from the SAAF Col in charge of operation Young Eagle. There will be a second exercise on the Swaziland/Moz border similar to the one they had last month on the Zim border. No flying 50 nm from the Swaziland/Moz border from 10 to 24 June unless you are operating a commercial flight. The NOTAM will be out next week.

This means we will not be able to fly to Ezulwini this year. As Pyramid is also in the restricted area a weekend to the Lowveld is also out of the question.

Any suggestions?

This is bad news :evil: :evil:

Looks like we have to think about this one :idea:

Option 1 :arrow: The Wild coast route sound good but then we will miss the Zwartkop Fly inn

Option 2 :arrow: Do the Ezulweni trip the end of May and the either do the Zwartkop Fly inn or do the Alldays trip

Wat dink julle :?:
