It was a simple question. You could not answer it. I cannot answer as I never saw it. Did you? I will not be like people on other forums and pass judgment without facts..simple as that. Okay - "hypothetically speaking" - ASSUMING that my original post is correct: Would you condone the Pic's behavio...

Here is the real problem. If the actions of others influence you to make the wrong decision you should not be flying. You are trained to make all the calls yourself. Whether it is low flying, flying in bad wind and WX it does not matter. Case in point with your Bela-Bela story. It is not their resp...

Eish I guess I am lucky I am still alive (-) Maybe. Or maybe it is skill. Lets just get back to the original post in my thread: Simple answer, Demon, Yes or No" Do you condone the behavior of the pilot in question? Yes? No? I never saw it so I would never presume to comment or judge on it. So I can...

This site is going in the same direction as Avcom at a rate of knots! It really sucks. Me this, you that, he did that! This is second hand info that originated from a non-pilot that was excited about the microlight, let it go and just fly! You don't know if he was really that low or if it just seem...

Maybe. Or maybe it is skill. But all have not been so lucky / skilled over the years, have they? Lets just get back to the original post in my thread: Simple answer, Demon, Yes or No"

Do you condone the behavior of the pilot in question?

Yes?

No?

Agreed Tumbie. ( Are the hangars at FASC still standing after Monday night's storms there over the Highveld? BIG damage at Beginsel...) I read your "grey-beard" post, and the remarks. (But this is MY thread... :lol: :lol: ) We will all agree that there are ML pilots with 4000, and 6000 hours. Still ...

HansH - go read my edited post below. You are quoted.

Agreed Bundy. Thanks. To each his own - luckily we have established that "fun" is the most important aspect to consider when making decisions. Also that the calls for "self policing" and outrage at a PIC after an accident fades into distant memory over time.. http://www.microlighters.co.za/viewtopic...

There is no "you this, I that". No reports to authorities were made? No names were published? The non-pilot who saw this luckily is friendly to trikers! (and knows enough about them to able to make a judgement based on his observation of a guy over the sharknets, with his backwheels a couple of metr...

Okay, I'll chill and let people have their fun. Sorry. To the lower hour guys - please ignore my initial posting and your training not to fly low over water - there is really nothing to worry about - it's all old-wives-tales. Just have fun, skimming the ocean 100 meters or so from the beach. Your Pa...

Oh,.... you will however have to participate in the k@@lg@t part we have every Saturday evening. :lol: :lol: :lol: Jy sal maak dat hy in die hanger slaap :lol: :lol: Nico, jy was reg.

My Dad arrived earlier this morning at his flat @ Blue Lagoon, Ramsgate, and this afternoon was standing on the balcony as you passed by... Being a supporter of trikes (because of ME, :roll: ) he watched you.... He SAYS: 1. Thank you! It made him think of me; 2. Looked like fun. He wishes he was in ...

Nee,....hy het nog getwyfel, maar nou is hy vir seker daar.

Solank ek vir Paul nie hoef kaalgat te sien nie!

Heya Asterix...be lekker to have you! Sorry.... I only saw your request now. :oops: I can only offer you a couch mate...so I'd take Paul up if I was you. (^^) Thanks Crusty. (!!) All sorted, will see you guys on Sat Morning. DBP grounded for now (F#@%^$ comms!) so wont be early. :( See ya there. (^...
