Back home after a long day. Another trike delivered safely. What a bitch of a flight. All smooth from Petit to Ladysmith. From Escourt Ultra Shell to Balito was all over the place around the clouds with no coms at all. Only SMS with Balito who informed King Shaka I was inbound and without transponder. Got the go ahead via SMS and push on hearing and saying NOTHING. Lost a brand new DRIFT HD camera (took it out the box this morning....Gone WEG !! :( Had a Long desent on idle and an engine sputter (carb icing I think) got my attention over the valley of a thousand hills with few landing options. Kept me wide awake until Balito.

Will I go again? YES!!! (^^) (^^) (^^)

Now you tell me. I could have picked it up. Maybe you must give it to Kevin the owner now. Sorry I missed you. Landed at 12h00 and went straight to King Shaka to board at 14h00. (^^)
