I fly a trike in the Overburg area near Greyton. I would like to know if there are any trikes in my area (Greyton/Riviersonderend). I also might do some flying on our farm in the Karoo near Williston, Fraserburg, Carnarvon. Anybody there?

Hi and welcome ZU BBV.

At first I read Greytown - "Dunno" where Greyton is.

Would love to fly the Karoo sometime.

Yes John

You wont believe what frustrations this Greyto(W)n has caused me. Mail delivaries to Natal instead of Cape. It is Greyton in the Western Cape.

Regarding the Karoo flying, we've got a farm in the karoo near Williston (not Willowmore!) I might move there permanently soon and would like to have some flying buddies there. I am new in the game (50 hours) and worried about all sorts of stuff, frosty mornings, carb ice(ing) etc etc. I will be going there for 3 weeks end November, beginning December this year. Are you comming to show me how to fly in the Karoo? Will provide the skaapchoppies.

Regards
Peter

Hi Peter,

Regarding learning the ropes about flying there - Arnulf and Boet would be your men.

Carb icing is very real. Suggest you ask the question on "Technical Talk" - will receive "lotsa" good advice there. Try the search feature as well. Enjoy & fly safe.

Hallo Peter, we have had a lot of rain here, so in about a month or two the blommetjies will be really spectacular. For more info on flying my neck of the woods, contact me on 082 8041896. You are welcome

I would post pics if i knew how, a bit "dof" when it comes to resizing and posting pics.
Regarding a lekka errie i think so too but never flew in one before guess i will find out after learning to fly a tail dragger.
Must first find somebody to help me with a conversion.

Rudi

Howzit sailor and welcome. Will see you around at Rhino. You must definately come say hello. I fly the Sycamore gyro. Was also there Saturday morning - worked a bit and flew a bit.

Will see you next Saturday.

Regarding a lekka errie i think so too but never flew in one before guess i will find out after learning to fly a tail dragger.

Cyril Manser was doing training in the Bushbaby tailie there on Saturday. Looks like he is quite competent with that. Talk to him - nice oke. He is there almost every Saturday.

I would post pics if i knew how, a bit "dof" when it comes to resizing and posting pics.

Right click on pic, send to mail recipient, make picture smaller. Save it from the mail to a folder and then upload attachment in bottom of post a reply. Curious about your baby.

[sailor]

Thanks ldel, will speak to Cyril soon.
I tried last night to upload photies but after resizing the way you suggested.
it still says "the file is to big,max allowed size is 100 kib."

Btw where to you guys hide those gyro's? saw some flying on sat.

Will try and look u up on sat. otherwise pop over to my hanger to have a look.

Cheers and safe flying.

Welcome to send me the pics. george @ gbfs . co . za and i post them. Good luck with tailie training. Take your time and keep the faith. It will feel like you will never get it and then suddenly it all just clicks and you wonder what all the fuss was about...
