Aerosan just to let you know when you started this thread at 06:41 Emil and I were airborne from Fisantekraal to Rhino Park allready for 31 minutes and here some photo's, I also flew over Morning star on Thursday afternoon and what a lovely airfield , sorry guys had limited time as we departed the next day.

Oh yes and for being over 50 it's great, I have no more kids in my wallet.

Hey Guys,

What difference does age make when you are having fun and still can !!!!
Well over the big 50, lower back requires lube now and again when it siezes up, but should have started triking years ago :lol: :lol: :lol: :shock:

Many happy returns to the Duck from the Heron - how did you celebrate the big five-oh, did Mrs Duck treat you to din-dins, dressed in your finest plumage... Duck a l'orange, maybe, with a finely chilled bottle of 5th Ave Cold Duck :?: >-(]

Happy Birth Day Duckie Man.
Phone me we need to have a beer or 50.



Sorry guys the time did not allow any social.
I landed after 13:00 on Thursday we took a drive to Stellies , I just love that field, and then onto Fisantekraal where we maid the last flight as Emil was finished witht the conversion and I was the nav and wop. Nerves ran at a pace where I was unable to control em and we took a good nights rest just to wake up at 04:00 shit shave shampoo and of to the field.
We got airborne at 06:10 and if you have not yet crossed those mountans you have that little man blikseming you from behind and telling you how high these f#$%^rs are. The leg to Beaufort waspiss and smooth, it was 100 nm from Tempe that the fitness test for turbulence3 started, ok ja we are now qulified turbulance pilots. Gee but it's great to be back home and that song rules, Will I do it again hell yes. Bliksem but my gat was seer van al die sit.
