How was the flyin? It was a bit windy...

[Gyronaut]

Even we are grounded. Wind gusting 35kts, nah, not a nice flyday so its braai and rugby day.

Learjet and myself flew up. We left early and the wind was not too bad. Wind at Kobee-T was directly across the runway but not unmanageable, even one guy on a trike arrived. Gathering was great and the brekkie superb! Flight back took a while but was not bumpy at all and we popped in at Morningstar where the wind was properly kak. Then back to Fisantekraal with a great view of the HECTIC fire on the Grabouw mountains.

[Gyronaut]

You GO boys! Us ou manne will rather drink beer and watch rugby on days when the wind slaps us around like this.
Well done JT & DL, glad you represented the Gyro fraternity on our behalf.

When is Anton's new gyro being launched?

U guys have BIG BOLS to fly in this wind , But just again goes to show what winds a gyro can handle !!

Well we certainly had a lekker tailwind of note from Goedverwacht to Kobee-T where we were welcomed with a magnificent fry-up breakfast. Anton has a great set-up with a very nice asphalt runway, and whilst the wind didn't play along today I hope Anton will arrange another fly-in soon as it really is a great little airfield to visit. I was expecting a turbulent ride on the way back but it actually turned out to be a lot smoother than expected despite the howling wind and the return leg took just under an hour. Had some fun with the hover landings at a very windy FAFK and reminded myself just how much fun gyros are in the wind

There was a yellow gyro flying of Moorreesburg +- midday? Was it you Dave? I did a radio check to hear if I could recognise the voice.

[Learjet]

THI, we passed Moorreesburg at about 11am so was probably us.
