Hi Nico,

Nog een... Keep them coming.
Have to come visit you one of these days and use that nice runway of yours.
But for now it is work!

I must admit, these topless wings do look pretty sexy! There must be a major difference in the "feel" of the wing though. For instance on the Aquilla wing, the luff lines pull the trailing edge up and you really have to fight her to keep the plane in a steepish dive/descent. I would imagine that th...

Solo Wings are not making Topless wings for the Aquilla anymore. According to me Solo Wings never made the Topless wing. They worked in collaboration with Jenya who supplied them the topless wing. My plane was one of the first New Aquillas to be fitted with the topless wing supplied by Jenya. Compa...

Not sure if one should laugh or cry?
Really enjoyed your rendition of A.A.A.D.D.
Guess I'm already showing some of the signs!
Try making lists...

Thanks to the organisers from the Microland Trikes (4). Once again you chose a nice crisp morning but the fire surely helped. Free coffee and hotdogs! Not too many fly-ins where you are treated to these. (^^) Thanks also to Comet and Action Cameras for the sponsorships. Well at least we know where t...

Oom Paul,

The new hanger looks great.
Wish I could spare the time to come and visit you but it is just work, work, work on my side.
I guess I should say thanks for lots of work but you know what they say about all work and no play...

Hope to see you soon.

Mervyn contacted me by sms to inform that the 4th of June date was off.
Sorry I only saw your post now otherwise I could have warned you.

Thanks to Mervyn, Herman and Etienne we had a lot of hard work, flying and fun.
One day I may leave the nav seat and try my hand at the flying!
But after the 36 second fast circuit with Lucas flying - how will I ever get there?

Hi Peters,
I think the R450 is for both you and the navigator.

Nr 4 "Smokey Jo" Hannes is lazy and not in his own plane but flying as navigator with Lucas.

Looking sooooo forward to this. Hope the wind a bit calmer than last year in Heidelberg.

This is more a leaning experience than a competition.
will be lots of fun!

First departure morning @ Microland.

Total change of direction... hope the weather gets better.
Enjoy the flying in the berg area and down to Camperdown.
Fly safe.

Everything ready and packed I guess.

I will be at microland from around 5:30-5:45
See you there.

Looks like reasonable weather on Friday for your route until about 11am. Looks like about 1:50-2:00 hours to reach Vaal Reefs and then another 1:45 to Bloemhof area. Nice stretch...
