Gert, do you have co-ordinates for that strip south of Tulbagh?

gertcoetzee · Postby **gertcoetzee** » Sat Mar 24, 2007 7:46 pm

19Ã‚Â° 7'39.09"E 33Ã‚Â°19'5.64"S

It is a farmstrip and we were not shot at, so seems to be OK

Ta.

Tulbagh is the only place without a strip in my database. Hole filled :D

Hi Gert
Your latest flight is not logged on your site. Ek toets ook net die forum uit

You don't see it because you have the old page in your browsers' temporary files. Best is to right click on the "log" page and press renew

Confronted my Simonsberg demon. Last time going around it I was too low, and the rotors from the north changed my direction by 180 degrees in a moment. Nice morning's flight

Hi Gert

There was a De Goede Ontmoeting (Crash) between 2 trucks this morning on that narrow bridge at the De Goede Ontmoeting landing strip.
Maybe they were watching you....

OH BABY I'm HOOKED

GERT baie baie dankie. Dis die eerste keer wat ek gevlieg het en dit was stunning!! Ek het gedog ek sou 'n probleem hÃƒÂª met die hoogte bo die aarde, maar tog nie.... deksels mooi daar van bo af...

Was bietjie geworried oor die sterk wind van voor, maar was eintlik heel ok met die "bumps". Die hele landing het ek op video. Was flippin lekker. Dankie weereens.

Non-flying day. Replaced hangplates, "jesus bolt" - see before and after picture - got rid of the "adverse yaw". Also replaced carb rubbers, new battery (not more pulling) and new plugs. Ready for a weekend of flying.
