Re: Who flies what and where?

Ek is so 70km weg van Marble hall as jy vanaf Nylstroom se kant af kom. Plaas se naam is Witkop. Die runway is nog in die beplan fase aangesien ek met die probleem sit dat die plek waar ek die Runway wil maak is perfek en lekker lank maar dit gaan beteken dat ek skuur daar moet opsit wat weer op n slegte plek ver van alles is en die plek waar ek die skuur wil op sit is weer lekker naby die huis maar daar is nou weer nie lekker plek vir n runway nie. Ek wou ook eers seker maak daar is ander mense om my voor ek die storie aan pak dit help my veel my trike staan naby Nylstroom maar ek moet elke keer rand toe vlieg as ek saam n groep wil vlieg.

Tribel croc i am more to the east of Nylstroom next to Swahili game reserve.

Hi fellow aviators
I am Andries, relatively new to microlighting, having obtained my license in June 2013 with SUPER instructors Fanie Deysel and Mervyn Reynolds. Most of the guys I have met to date are from Microland and through this thread I hope to meet many more (^^) I am the proud new owner of ZU-CSZ 582Aquilla, my first set of wings (^^) I hope to meet you all, as I am in this fantastic sport for the long run :!:

Thank you Alpha (^^) As I am a rookie, I want to soak up as much info and experience as possible :? Tailwinds, Chain gang, may i be bold and ask to be considered as a "tag along" whenever a cross country or fly in as a group is planned? Quickest way to gain experience is with the "ou manne" (experienced) pilots :) I work a 4 week rotation in Brasil, 4 weeks in SA and that means six months per year of "own" time at home with the wife and FLYING! vhpy I am planning to move my plane from Microland to Secunda where I live, first week in August. I obtained a hangar space at last! I will be doing regular flights to microland, especially for braai Saturdays (^^)
Safe flying.
