Re: Taildraggers to Nylstroom 19-21 July 2013
What a lekke weekend. All of us arrived back home safely. A big thank you to Richard and the team form Nylstroom for probably the best orginized event of the year. In total between 130 and 140 aircraft attended the event. We had a joll and will be there again next year. In total we had 8 Bushbabies Explorer's and Safari's attending. Well done guys. I will post some pics when I had time to make them smaller.

Awesome weekend. Lots of work by the Nylstroom Vliegklub. Every second of your hard work and bending over backwards was worth it, and appreciated by one and all . (Smooch for the ladies). A small club doing moving-the-mountain-work to bring a grassroots event to the aviation community and pulling the non-aviation 'ground birds' into this super event. The vibe this weekend made me think of the 'old' Margate fly in and EAA convention in the 1980's...... lots of flying, regardless of the wind, many friends meeting again (some of them 'old friends' by now) and many new friends made. Well done.

Congrats on a awesome event
Every year you guys are going bigger
I went for a flip in the RV7 wow this was fun we did : loops, spins , stalls , 4 point turns , rolls and some inverted flying
The wind gods kept me from flying back the afternoon but the guys at FANY opened up a hangar for the disco ball
Thanks guys we will definitely be back every year

Ek wil net graag Nylstroom geluk wens vir n puik byeenkoms saterdag. Dit was voorwaar n heerlike dag.
Aan Richard, Paul en die ander manne van Nylstroom, namens my en Oom Gawie, baie dankie vir die Hanger spasie wat julle aan ons beskikbaar gestel het. Ons wardeer dit baie.
n Baie spesiaale woord van dank aan Nico, n ware vriend duisend, wat saterdag middag in die sterk wind terug gevlieg het Potties toe en toe nog vir my en Oom Gawie kom haal het by Tail Draggers en weer van oggend ons terug soontoe gevat het. Ons waardeer dit opreg.
Ek kan nie wag vir volgende jaar se Tail Draggers nie..
Sien julle almal weer daar..........
