Went for a flip this morning and set a personal best ground speed - 88mph on 21 downwind leg Turned finals and it felt like you fly into a wall.
I hope the WX plays nice for Saturday morning
See you guys at 05:30

Re: THE MICROLAND THREAD..."Home of the Tailwinds"
I'm the same Bundy, also never been to Kroon so I'd like to join you. Maybe if we offer Steve & Paul a few beers they'll forgive us
I'll be at the braai afterwards, unfortunately the missus is working.
Let me know if there's still anything I can bring for Sat?

Re: THE MICROLAND THREAD..."Home of the Tailwinds"
Happy Happy to all for 2014! (^^) May we see the end of the year with nothing bent, nothing broken and good memories made in the middle. Apparently I'm the only sucker who didn't get a break over Dec but at least I did some flying around the patch and a great sunset flight yesterday with the pregnan...

Re: THE MICROLAND THREAD..."Home of the Tailwinds"
I'll also be at the braai. WX looks fantastic this whole week. This morning felt like sitting in the lounge soffa. I'm jealous Paul! Instead of flying I had a 6AM horse riding lesson this morning (**) The stuff we'll do for a woman... Also learned a microlight has nothing on a horse for turbulence :...

Re: THE RHINO PARK THREAD
Ant, I didn't know you're an instructor or are you just having a bit of fun with that photo comment?
I think that pic is played out often at flight schools: Instructor having a jol in the back, student with a WTF expression in the front
Priceless

Re: Flips can be very expensive
The place has a reputation for strong winds.
I go fly fishing there a lot each year and I can remember a time when the wind wasn't blowing..it was a Monday, in 2004 I think

Re: THE MICROLAND THREAD..."Home of the Tailwinds"
Ek hoop eks verkeerd maar surely steel jy nie 'n prop om iewers te gaan smous nie? Batterye, radios ens kan ek nog insien, maar nie 'n prop nie. Wat dan beteken hierdie bliksem is "one among us".
Mag hy die skerp kant van daai prop binnekort voel. Jou k@k is geboek, ou maat.

Great shots of the cosmos Paul! Send me the co-ords please, I'd like to go show Softness.
But I'm not surprised you could smell the flowers...YOU WERE FLYING 10mm ABOVE THEM!!
My plane's been higher off the ground sitting on a trailer than that 3rd pic of yours
