Stefan and I have just bought TC's aquilla and will be hangering at ML.

Nice one Bundy.
Hope to see you there soon - work has been keeping me either in Cape Town or somewhere in Africa...
Enjoy!

I flew again this morning,even though the weather looked a bit crappy but it was calm with not a breeze blowing.
I flew with Fanie this time and we started with landings, it took me about 30 min before i started catching the hang of it, taking off is easy landing is a whole nother exercise.
At one point Fanie sat back and said " ok i am not going to say or do a thing LAND this thing" and much to my surprize i did just that with a little effort and concentration i managed to perform a number of touch and goes all by myself!!! WOW what and awesome experiance !!

SOLO in about 3 hrs time the guys recon!!

When youfinished with your training there is always a space on the DARK SIDE the force is strong there.

Hi Guys

Just an update the weather was very crappy on the 14th Dec so i did not manage to fly as the wind sock flying straighter than a witches broom stick
Anyway managed to do my medical and spent half the day at RAASA waiting to get me Student license which i now have i suppose now things really become interesting!
Now i am just waiting for Fanie to get back to me on when he has a slot availbale for me i am hoping someone gets flu and cancels his/her slot this week
(check my phone every 2 min for it to ring)

Next step is SOLO all by my loan some!!

I cannot agree more about the excellent training at Microland with instructors Fanie Deysel and Mervyn. I've done my solo about two weeks ago, a dream come true!! Thank you Fanie for your "no nonsense" approach to training. I felt totally at ease with the first solo, due to the quality training received. I am looking forward to a long term relationship with Microland Skyriders.
