Certainly, will listen out for you guys om 124.8. We have been experiencing a fair amount of ground mist in the area the last few mornings, but this soon clears.
Also, if you are able to land at Kwena, you can then route to Numbi via Schoemans kloof which means you only need 6000 ft instead of going over the escarpment at 8000 ft..just a thought..
enjoy the flight..

Blue eagle,
would love to see you at Kwena, but it is a little off the road track, and about the P...only bushes and long grass off the runway......To get there by road you would have to turn off at Bambi Motel, drive towards Lydenburg, then turn off to Kwena dam, not really practical on a road trip..Next time....fly down, route over the dam, and land for the tea or coffee..we promise to be discreet about the P...
enjoy the Africa Cup..next year my Bantam and I will be there..
