Just a quick one on Demon's pic, sorry for hijack

What AGL where you at when the pic was taken over the Katse dam demon?

Looks pretty high, when i went for my flip in KWK, we were a bit lower! :lol:

I seem to remember harrasing various wildlife forms, ie a cheetah with an African grey flying it :twisted:

Does anyone know this spot :? , Came across it on Saturday morning. Beautiful runway complete with lights on the sides vhpy . Would like to know who owns it :?: Maybe twist the owners arm for a breakfast one morning :wink:
Let's first see if someone can guess where this is (!!)
I even saw a few lions in a camp close to the one end of the runway :shock:

Well, the lions must be at this end of the runway,

otherwise they would be SEA LIONS
