Oulke idee Nico.
voorstel.
Elke foto moet vergesel wees van n beskrywing.
Byvoorbeeld.:
Hier het ek en Karel op ou kersdag 1950 langs Loskop dam geland. My blaas kon dit nie meer hou nie net toe ons wil opstyg toe....bla bla bla. ($$)

The microlight was built by George Killey and I bought her new in 1981, for R4250. She was originally powered by a Sachs 35Hp direct drive, 2T, engine, which performed well for a single seat configuration. In 1985, I fitted a second seat (the space behind me), the canard and the belt reduction drive Rotax single ignition 503. I never took a passenger. I flew about 100hrs in 9 years, without any serious incidents. She is still folded up and hanging from the roof of my garage. I don't think I will ever fly her again....one instructor told me, "it is life threatening to do a pre-flight" vhpy

That thing was amazingly accurate. They still sell them at California Power Systems and at Spruce Aviation.
