Circus Boys Parys Breakfast Run

[Skinner]

3 Of us Circus boys flew to Parys for a breakfast yesterday and what an experience
On arrival we where welcomed by a bunch of friendly faces with the smell of hot coffee and fried goodies in the air.
I can highly recommend Parys as a breakfast destination
A few photo's attached

Hi Guys,

The Parys Breakfast Run was fantastic and we (the Circus Boys [and the softness]) would definitly
recommend to do something like this once every month.

So for anyone who wants to join us next month to the Parys Breakfast Run, feel free to do so.

KBP - howzabout the circus boys with their cobra toys meet me halfway somewhere for a brunch - lets say maybe wolmaranstad somewhwere? Or even delareyville. Klerksdorp guys are keen as well.

[Sad-Ham]

Sounds good. Theres two of us at wingfield at Loch Vaal that will join you , keep us informed of the date.

[Skinner]

Howzit Sad Ham,

We actually wanted to land at Wingfield on the way to Parys...where you guys around on Sunday morning?
We should arrange to come and visit you guys some time soon
Have a look at my post under Hanger Talk, Quiz for Pilots - maybe you guys have more detail on the two airfields in question
Cheers,
Mike Skinner.

Hi Mike

No.... had a lateish night on saturday so only went out Sunday afternoon.

Never seen the strip in the first two photos before where abouts did you take the photo?
The photo showing the runway and the hanger is a private strip belonging to a friend of mine approximately 4Nm to the north-east of wingfield. He has two 3-axis microlights he flys from there.

Cheers

Phil

Hi Phil,

I'm going to give away the answer to the quiz now but seeing that no one has taken a guess yet I won't keep you wondering
The strip is approximately 3 to 4nm south, south east of your field
Just shows you that one does not always see everything...not even when flying around the cabbage patch
I have the exact coordinates, will post them shortly. Do you have the coords for the private strip

Mike.

Hi Frequent Flyer

Is jy dan al klaar met jou cobra ?
Dis reg met my en n paar ander CIRCUS manne .
Kontak jy net vir 3 wielietjies want ek dink hy is bang om so ver te vlieg.
Se net wanneer en ons maak n plan vir brunch.

Good stuff, thats what this is all about. I dropped into Winfield 2 weeks ago, still one of my favourite airfields.....how about a big breakfast fly-in to parys or wingfield sometime guys

I'm in,but my boys know they will have to do almost double the distance or push bar out if i fly with. the Windlass dont fly too fast you know
p.s. nice pics Mike. it was gr8 to fly with you and Cobra KBP. Thanks.

Rather Parys than Wingfield. I don't fancy paying 50 bucks again just for a boerie and a cup of coffee.

[Thatchman]

Gaylord, Buzz Lightyear and myself went to Parys on Saturday for a breakie.

We thought that we would stop at Circus on the way back and have coffee but nobody was home . It was about 10h30
