Logistics and politics!
Either leaving family behind or asking Petro to drive with 5 month son to Numbi only to watch me take off yonder while she attends to baby.....
Maybe next year!

Just wondering if he ever saw the NISSAN advertising blimp at about 200ft AGL, just beyond Clearwater Mall as he zoomed past it this afternoon. Then made a turn to the North, abeam Hillfox Centre, Hendrik Potgieter Rd.
Man!....that thing moves! I never seen a trike that fast :shock:

You weren't far away from it :shock:
It's on the Eastern side of Clearwater Mall, at the Auto Dealers centre, next to the Harley Davidson shop. Across the road from Clearwater. North of the ridge. There's about ½ NM distance between the ridge and the blimp.
I usually have my handheld tranceiver in the car.....Murphy's law, the battery's dead and it's on charge :(
