I dunno whether you can view this but it is my latest flight planning.
Will refuel from a jerry can half way and make Eagle Flight Academy at Hartswater who are very accomodating to sell fuel and overnight if weather is too crappy to continue.
Those departing at first light and cruising around 85- 90 m/ph should converge around Bleomhof and should be in contact on 124.8.

Bietjie jag en dan BUNDU!!!!!!!

Op pad na die Kalahari Bundu Bash, Dinsdag met my Tecnam en Herman met sy Sling. Ons wil graag Brandstof ingooi op Lichtenburg (halfpad). Het iemand vir my 'n kontak daar? Van Phalaborwa na Lichtenburg is so 300 knope en dan nog so 300 knope tot op Upington.

Take off Teus 06h30 if no mist.
Just phoned met they predict no clouds and average of 10 knots from 270 degrees, so almost headwind the whole way but better than this morning and vfrplanner which showed 15 knots plus.
