KLIPRIVER AIRFIELD

Postby falconp1 » Tue Sep 25, 2012 2:04 pm

Yesterdays flight around the patch was very therapeutic. Crystal clear skies and quiet airwaves.
Beats a braai hands down any day. puff

Klip must be one of the best airfields around. I enjoy it so much here.

Hi Faizal.
I couldn't wait for the wind to die down. That's the great thing about Klip. There's always a runway into the wind. It was pumping yesterday but actually quite smooth.

Any one of those dates will be ok with us. We can finalise closer to the time I think.

Let's see if there are more guy's interested then we can do a breakfast fly-in. :idea:

Hi Falcon, what happened to the July fly-in this year? I know the weather caused a cancel but why not just a potpone? (^^)
