I really feel for you chaps, devastating, I will fix up all our supplied gear at no cost, thats the least I can do, but at this time its the sheer devastation and your home that needs fixing. If you can send all together in a box with names etc. I will do what we can asap for you. I am sure that other suppliers will also help where possible.
Hopefully no body was hurt.

Oh man! This scene of devastation is surely one of the saddest sights I have ever seen and my heart goes out to everyone of the folks who lost an aeroplane or sustained damage to one.

I am lost for words. Mother nature can be very cruel sometimes.
Zulu1 you are a true gentleman.
Next time we go to Ballito we must have a cold one.

Re: Tornado at Contermanskloof
Of the many words I have learned hartseer is one of them. Verskoon my guys, so so sad. Empty words they may be but if there was anything I could do to help I would without hesitation.
One of the things I admire about the South African is your strength to overcome so you make a plan ja and you make what you had better than it was.

Re: Tornado at Contermanskloof
Terrible, terrible, tragedy,
Words can not begin to describe what I feel much less what you all feel,
I can only hope that ,by some miracle, the airfield gets build up again.
Sorry for the loss everybody suffered.
