My sentiments exactly. Luckily we got our flight in on Sunday (^^)

Regulator replaced and all is fixed.....now the battery is charging perfectly....albeit in the hangar. ##

Well seeing as though I am no longer a danger to National Security....I'll be airbourne from FABA at 5am...

I'm headed to Steve Bosch's runway near FAR171 if anyone would like to tag along? :)

Not sure if Steve is there so bring a flask for the saddlebag... (^^)

See ya in da sky boys...

Well, had a good last flight for 2013.

We had rain and thunder drifting in over FABA this morning so I had to delay TO by an hour. Sorry Steve, could not make it as far as you due to time lost on the ground. Will have to come visit you again in the New Year (^^)

Took a flip out to Brandbach Farm instead....very lekker! Nice to see Nick/Faizel this morning and sommer got surprised by a familiar voice on the way back....Slangetjie...nice to see you up where you belong mate. 8)

I'll catch you guys in 2014.
Fly safe dudes. (^^)
