Hi guys,
I have a mate who is interested in learning to fly a trike, but has never been in one. Is there anyone in the Bapsfontein area who is able to take him up and blow bis mind?
He is prepared to pick up the fuel costs.

Re: Potential new Trike Pilot

Tell your friend to go to Microland.
Fanie and or Mervin will take him up for free if they judge him to be serious.
That was how I got started.

Hi Byron,
Sorry I have not arranged this yet (you did ask me to) but I have not wanted to take a PAX up till I sort my flippin landings out....
Flying 1 hour a month since June is showing!
Just ask Rhodie....we shared the circuit this morning!
Merv and Fanie will def oblige, and if he just pitches on a Sat morning there is always someone flying somewhere.Paul Mulder, Oom Dawid...lots of willing pilots.
Bundy needs some more practice I'm afraid....

Just like Gary Player said:
