11:00 and I did it, I did it....................................................
















:shock: I just shitted myself :shock:


How much turbulence is too mush turbulence and how do I know when this little Windlass is going to brake up in the air or role over, have a tryke ever flipped when airborne. :? :?


I left a 7H00 for a flight from Newcastle to Dundee and was that awesome, but when I left Dundee for Newcastle at 10 H00 it was another story. :shock: :shock: :shock: Till what time do you guys normally fly in summer times if wind is no problems? :roll: :roll: :roll:


And how much turbulence is too mush turbulence, I can always clean myself afterwards, but I don't wane fall out of the sky. :roll :roll: :roll:

Should've rather chosen to fly to Witbank this morning.

Absolute still, unbelievable. Felt like being suspended from a top hook.

"Check ma, no hands". :D Smoothest flight I've ever had.

P.s. Perhaps, flying without a fairing has an obvious advantage - instant air flow allows for inmediate clothes dry / ventilation. :lol: I'm sure that vent up the leg would have been a comfot.

Hi agent, When we met this morning ( trike from Secunda) I didnt realise I was talking to the agent.

Bennie was at the wrong place.

Should put some insignia on that nice plane of yours.

Ja Ja, but at what time were you all back at base?

And if I'm recalling correct the Secunda/Witbank area is flatter than the Free State. :wink:

Back at 09h45.

Yes it's flat, but we have the added man - made obstacles of powestations, refactories, Sasol 3 e.t.c. As you get a whiff of sulphur, hold tight, coz there is a little 'gat stamp' to follow.

To be fair, we hav'nt had lekker full days since November, so I guess it's our turn. :)

So do you guys see how important it is to have some form of insignia on the flight suits or a/c.
We must rely work in that direction and if there is some thing avail able I WANT.
Now I sound like some people.

Dela VV nice to have met you folks and will arrange for something in the future.

OH Yes and thanks to the kind folk at Wibank for the coffie and roll and when I got back to Rhino we burnt a huge Fillet.

Agent, its pretty expensive to get a once off badge embroyded, u have to pay for a design fees, the cost per badge is also worked out according to the total number of embroided badges, usually in multiples of 100 badges....

it works out a lot cheaper to take a once off design eg your forum identity, regsitration etc to a silk sceening company for printing onto your flight suite or t-shirts etc

In addition, a vinyl cutting company can design and cut a once off series of vinyl stickers, pretty quick, easy and hassel free.... but they will charge for the art work which varies from about R50- a few hundred rand depending on the complexity..... straight foward lettering takes a few hours, pictures and designs eg your avatar, takes a few days.... but these guys are really good...

PS: Alternatively a place like "pam golding" or "intro" may have a few extra "agent boards" for you, or alternatively they are freely available on Sunday afternoons on most pavement corners :lol: :lol: :lol:
