Private strips near Cullinan

Postby Bundy » Thu Nov 11, 2010 7:00 pm

Hey all,

I just want to update my list of "Alternates". I fly out of JAG air in Cullinan and normally fly in the area to the east of town. If you have a PVT strip within 50NM of Cullinan, can you please PM me or post your coordinates here? Just nice to have a good data base of Alternate runways should I ever need a spot to land. I have most of the major spots, Rhino , Kitty etc but really interested in the PVT strips.

Thanks!

Hans Kolver has a beautiful strip North West of Cullinan and east of Hammanskraal.

It runs almost North South, is right next to his home. Watch for power lines approaching from the North and the lightning conductors around his house. Also look out for cattle and ostriches

The runway is long enough that you can almsot land a Dak on it!

Co-ords: 25 20 04.46 S 28 24 22.55 E - as per Google Earth

Just call him 0823780847 and tell him you want to visit - he is a recentyl retired SAA Captain and proud owner of a lovley green Bantam

Enjoy! (^^)
