Help needed to fly newspapers

Postby Aerosan » Mon Oct 06, 2008 5:53 pm

Hi Guys
I hope I can find some help here. I have not recieved any reply on AVCOM as yet but lets see its still early days :!:

Im looking for someone to fly +- 1 ton of newspaper from JHB to DBN twice a week, Sunday night and Wednessday night. Catch is this, it will be ready at 00:00 :shock: in the morning and needs to be in DBN ready to pick up at 02:00. I realize I will most probly have to charter a plane but still I need a price. (**)

Cheers

What I was thinking is to put a PT6 on the front of the koala, cut the wings shorter buy half and do a test this saturday. Ill take Tailspin as a safety pilot (Duck is plain bad luck :twisted: :wink: ) Ill pop over to Morph to veruify the integrity of the engine mount and front wheel, oom Boet to do a respray(at the speed Im planning to travel I recon it will be in dire need of a respray by the time I get loeries) and then back to Bara for some circuits. I will see the DBN when I do my first route. All I need now is a co-pilot, any takers :?: If all is well Ill even take Duckkie for a flip puff only if he asks very very nice.

Cheers Sanna

Hi Guys

Not yet but with a bit of luck we will soon. We are doing a quote for a new daily newspaper, but that is all I can say otherwise I would have to kill you all, and I just dont have the time right now :twisted: :wink: I could always just ask the Duck - his quacking will drive anyone to hirikari, harikari orwhatever the guys call it when they gooi a sword through their own bowels ($$) ($$) ($$)

Thanx for the interest

Be a lot simpler to find a printer with some capacity in Durban, put the newspaper electronically on a server, and print it by the sea
