How about combining it with Hippo Pools?

So much negativity on the site. Why not say, great idea but is it possible to waiver landing fees for a fly in to Hoedspruit. Here is someone trying to do something for flying and he gets shot down.

Africa, I started the landing fee thread to give the forum some perspective.

Anyone flying to Hoedspruit had allready spent his first R 50.00 just to drive to his own airfield. Couple of hundred bucks on the flight, more bucks for food etc.

So there is no reason, even if you did plan to waive the fees, that R 50.00 landing fees are unreasonable.

There were good tips however how to anger pilots by charging fees for kak service.

But from the sound of it, Hoedspruit ain't one of them. (^^)

Keep it up ! vhpy
