Oom Frans is a typical example of someone who has EARNED the respect of his peers in their own field.

It is always a pleasure to hear the PC12 'Mercywing' flights on which do I believe I have heard your voice before.

Many of us stand in awe of your vast technical and real flying experience. We hope to learn from you.

May you be blessed with a wonderful birthday and a lovely festive season.

One of your admirers - Morningstar.

Thanks you all. I had a wonderful day surrounded by my kids grand children and dogs and they spoiled me rotten.

It is wonderful this time of life there are experiences you cannot have at 30 and I would not like to miss them. So I'm taking it year by year so next year I will be aiming for the big 70.

The Bosvarkie is flying very well and I have activated the Blackbox on the Voyager and I have been doing retrospective studies of the many parameters. The EGT's are well within the ballpark and on the airspeed read out I see that she stalls at 34mph. The engine is now turbine smooth.

Thanks to all for the nice wishes

Cheers Oupa-G
