If we start getting airborne around 5h00, it will take approximate 10 -15 min for all 5 trikes to be airborne, flight time 25-30 min, will be overhead Microland around 5h45. What do you think?

Alpha,

I have based on an average cruise speed of 55mph,27.2 miles, it will be 30min flight from microland to Ergo slimes, should we leave microland at 5h45, we will be there at about 6h15-6h20, all depends on the wind :)

What time you guys planning to braai? Fiezel, get some guys from ML to go with (^^)
Alan, you must get your own aerie. I have one for you, Aerotrike safari, 503, got quite a few hrs on but in excellent condition. The guy, Hans Muller, you know him, will take R25 000 or even less. (^^) I can't keep up with that aerie. vhpy
