Thank you for everybody that attended our Fly-inn at Kitty Hawk. You made it worth the effort put in to orginise this event.

Had some very positive feedback and we realized that there is a definite need for get-togethers to talk and meet the fellow pilots.

Thank you to the Microlighters that joined us and also the excellent Harvard from Zwartkops.

Apicella , than you for the pictures, looks stunning. Please select a nice aerial shot that we can enlarge, frame and display in the clubhouse. Please get in contact with me on the details.

Thank you to the restaurant for the well prepared breakfast.

Mathew gave a us a very nice display routine and we all know now what a Gyro is capable of.

We will definitely do this again

Nice day at Kitty Hawk - and another first for me landing at the infamous strip for the first time. Nice to see so much gyros together. Counted 28 at one stage.

Well organised event Condor and the brekkie was really good.

Magnis Elas and MTs were all well presented. Sadly only one Sycamore and no RAF.

Some pics.

Cloudbase in Condor's gyro taking Apicella for his first gyro flip and some good aerial photography.

Condor also allowed Matthew Slaweski to do an aerial display of a gyro's capabilities in his beloved M22 ZU-DWV. Good one, and thanx Condor. Pretty sure Apicella will have some good pics for us.

We also had a fixed wing visitor. Must say, very impressive up close and personal, especially between the muggies.
