Sadly the weather prevented many trikes from attending, some really well endowed trikers from Parys and from Babsfontein did arrive. My greatest admiration to them for their fortitude. Also my gratitude for all those that did turn up to sample our hotdogs of which a surprising number were consumed. ...

Hi flyers, as we are hoping for a host of trikes, we will be ready from 06h00.
Hotdogs and coffee until supplies run out!

You could always PAX in or get your latest lover to drive.............. ( no offense)

We have just received confirmation that Bird Aviation will be bringing a Decathlon to this event and will be offering an aerobatic flip for R500.

Great opportunity to all who have ever wanted to experience the thrills of aerobatics and did not know where to go to get the opportunity.

If you cant fly in, drive in Donovan welcomes all.
Fixed wing, multiple wing, rotary wing, flap wing rag wing, anything invited. Stranger the better. Angels and demons too.

Join Donovan at the Rainbow school hanger at Kliprivier airfield on morning of 20 feb 2016. All welcome. Hotdogs and coffee free. Just a social get together. All aircraft types welcome even have 1100 meter runway for the heavier visitors. Frequency SR south 125.6. Uncontrolled.

Now have an O-200 standing in my hanger.
Must first sell off the 912 before I install the Continental.
Any buyers??
