Zynkraal Airfield - worth a vist

Postby Rotor-Blade » Thu Jan 10, 2013 2:38 pm

I took a short flight out to see zynkraal airfield on Tuesday. What a pleasant surprise. The airfield has a restruarant which is hosted by Danielle, who most was accomodating in making one feel welcome. The food prepared was great and after a quick lunch the trip back to my home field was awesome. The airfield boasts a tar runway, niceand easy on the landng gear for a change, a great meeting point foe all aviators, including our own gyro community.

Tired of Parys, Kitty etc, give it a bash, with the right support this will grow to be a great alternative. I am led to believe they do a really good "Buffet Breakfast" on the weekend

Standard left hand circuits. Fuel normally available (unless they run out). Only ever paid by credit card. Not sure what else they take.

Ryan (oh ate too 638 five 347) manages the fuel sales.
