Unfortunately I was not there with the 2015 run...perhaps Gary(Alpha) and Gavin(Tailspin) as well as who ever else went can post some
Here are a couple of randoms from 2014

Having just completed my license, im nowhere the 100hour mark, flying to Margate is definitely on my "bucket list".
Will have to stay home this year, log those hours and then join you next year

Trailer down, you are going to log 15 to 20 hours flying for the week, some of the most awesome flying.Adampie wrote:Having just completed my license, im nowhere the 100hour mark, flying to Margate is definitely on my "bucket list".

You will want to go down next year again, then you fly down!

Re: South Coast Fying 2016 - Annual Margate trip

Kom ons kry die name van almal op n lys hier.
Daars n groep ouens wie by my oorslaap op die 22 ste ( Yzervarkfontein) en daarvandaan vlieg ons Sat oggend 23 April na Standerton ( of Secunda waar ons juice kry by Leon) dan Volksrus waar ons weer juice kry. ( Daai ouens ken my al,.)
Dan jump ons oor die rif so 10 Knt anderkant Volksrus sonder dat jy dit eintlik gaan agterkom. ( Hoop net daar le nie weer n misbank onder die berge van 50 KNT lank nie.!!)
Dan vlieg ons Battlefields toe waar ons juice gooi, eet en slaap.
Daarvandaan na Eva,s toe vir juice en dan na Margate toe.
Ons sal vorentoe begin organize met die ouens vir juice en plek by Battlefields.

Re: South Coast Fying 2016 - Annual Margate trip

Hi gentlemen, I have a trike trailer. Also suitable for luggage, petrol cans and what have you..
If there is a ground crew member who wants to use it, it might come in handy if some-one want to use it on the return trip.
I am sure it will be a good back-up item cause the year before last we were in need of a trike trailer with the return trip.
Have a nice life.!

And the year before that on the occasion of me trimming the poles at the Shell garage at Estcourt I also was in need of a trailor.
