Re: THE MICROLAND THREAD..."routing for the tower"

Hi Louis, if we can find a parking spot for your trike (there must be space in the general hangar?) you're welcome to stay over at my place. I'll be at ML on the Thursday afternoon to prep and Friday morning we drive in.

Re: THE MICROLAND THREAD..."routing for the tower"

Jaco, Nico? You in? Who else? (!!) Chantelle (hopefully) and I are in. Bundy - if we get caught in weather and have to stay the Monday it won't be a problem for me, but Softness has to be back in Jhb. If the Isuzu will be coming back on the Sunday she'll come with but otherwise she can't chance it....

Jeepers Bundy, if you're up at 4 in the morning you should've come fly with us! :wink: We haven't had a lot of them, but this morning's WX was absolutely perfect. Hope we get a repeat performance on Saturday (^^)

Re: THE MICROLAND THREAD..."routing for the tower"

Yip, I'm in Bundy. Wind forecast looks dreadful for the next 2 days (that's for us mere mortals without advanced training... :wink: ) but I'm going to try for Friday morning as well if anyone wants to join me for a few circuits.
