I named it 911 Maropeng as it is a private strip (so 911 = emergency only) and it is across from Maropeng.

But yes, VERY nice and long and worth putting in your GPS!

Note: this Google Earth image does not show it!!

Beware of wildlife though! When I flew over (as seen in Madman's pic) there was buck on the runway! ##
