Re: African Pilot, Aeroclub and us "thugs"

Athol Franz went to great pains to inform the meeting that he owns a Cessna 180...He omitted to inform the meeting, whilst he was mouthing off, that he owns 1/10 of a Cessna 180.

I really learnt a hell of a lot today. 8) It was pretty impressive watching you do hammerheads into 03 and then a swooping approach that, let's just say, they don't teach you in Basic Training :lol: My eyes would've been...

I'm trying to ignore the massive rain cloud hanging over my office and show some faith in the weathermen who say this will all be gone by morning -0<
