Hi guys
I need to fly into Vaalwater on Saturday morning and depart again on Sunday morning. Does anyone know of a runway close to town that is maintained and can be used by a gyro? Transport has been arranged so nothing of the sort needed, only a maintained strip.
Regards

Splinter,
I once flew into a well maintained grass strip about 2km South of Vaalwater with the Bantam. The owners fly a Cessna 210 from the strip, situated next to the graveyard.
I'll check today to see whether I've still got the owner's tel number.

Thanx Guys.
Was put in contact with Francois Duvenhage at Vaalwater. He has a 800m grass strip that is used every day and maybe some space in a hanger
. Thanks for the help

Landed there 2 weeks ago in my Cherokee. Francois and Derek are very accommodating.
