OK...

Confirmed with Steve, we can go stay there on the 4th May.

Tailwinds "Boschcamp" May 4th-5th

FABA to Steve Bosch and back

You will need:

1: An airworthy aircraft
2: GEES
3: Bedding and a pillow

Food we will arrange closer to the time.
Basic idea is to fly there Sat morning and fly back sometime Sun. Go check out some game, maybe the Dam on Sun Morning?

Costwise...well...

So far confirmed:

Paul and Dionne Mulder (Chalet 1)

Thank you for your very kind hospitalty Steve and Mike!

Daarsy. Luckily I now have BIG panniers, so I can take bedding and clothes and tie downs and pegs and toiletries and Dionne Dionne is going to look like a kangaroo in a pouch in the pannier.

[Bundy]

Dont all shout at once!

Whoo hoo!

Done...1 x chalet is yours!

Be great to fly with you guys again. Will keep editing the list above...

Come on everyone else!....

[mulderpm]

Looks like it is going to be the old gang again....great. I think there is going to be a lot of takers. Some late comers may have to camp on the lawn.

Again, thanks to Bundy and Steve and Mike. Frank, you bringing Kindle?

[Frank Smallwood]

I think the kindle may have to be sacrificed for the sake of a sleeping bag.
Is Steve Bosch place savannah lodge on the are chart? I want to put waypoints in gps which Sharon gave me for Xmas. I have finally mounted it on my instrument pod. All I need to do now is find out how to use it!
Really looking forward to a weekend away flying with you guys.
Is fuel available there?

Cheers Frank

Steve phoned me and told me that the Chalets have bedding. So, if you are in a chalet you can bring Kindle.

GPS co-ords = S 25.45472 E 28.41389

Is fuel available there?

To get there and back one tank is good enough for me but if we fly north on Sunday morning I will also need extra fuel. We will make a plan.

Yes, it is going to be great.

Nick there are tents still avalable chom, just have to bring your bedding. I will add you to the list above.

[BeanCounter]

Please add me to the list but I'm flying solo.
Can I book a tent away from all you snorers?

Ag slangetjie, its like the suitcase once said to the luggage..."you must fit in or f@#k off!"

Always remember Newton's 5th law...

The decibal level of snoring is directly proportional to the amount of rum consumed.

I'll put you on the list for a tent chom....convieniently located at the end of the runway.

Only 4 tents left guys.....I did say ALL WELCOME....Rhino horns, Chaingangers, anyone else?
