Help needed to flip 50 Voortrekkers 13 March Microland

Postby Cacofonix » Tue Mar 09, 2010 9:16 am

I am posting this message on behalf of Herman Barnardt.

Hi My Fellow Microlight Pilots
My wife Johanni Barnardt is a Voortrekker officer of the Queenwood Commando. The Voortrekkers is a Christian South African Cultural organisation for all South African children.

They would like to take approximately 50 Voortrekker High School children for flips on Saturday 13 March 2010 from Microland. All the children and their parents will sign indemnities.

I will obviously also be there but we need many more pilots and planes to help in order to give everybody a proper chance to fly.

It is for a good cause.

There will be a briefing for all who would like to assist at Micoland lapa Saturday morning at 6 am. The flips will start staight after and continue into the morning until the last voortrekker has had their flip.

Thanking you in advance.
Herman.

vhpy vhpy Sorry man, by the looks of it everybody is busy this weekend.
I would have liked to help but my aerie is on the farm at Eland quadcamp and Microlights.
If nothing comes of it this weekend you can phone me and we can organize a weekend for them on the farm at very special rates and I will try and get the Loskop okes to help out if nobody can help this side..
Just a Thought.!! vhpy

Hi Herman

I'm stationed at Brits with my Bantam 6 cylinder - can possibly fly over early on Saturday morning to land at 06h30. Can I refuel there for the return leg?

Please phone me

Hallo daar

We're going for a morning breakfast @ Cullinan but after breakfast the pilots from Petit will quickly stop to help you out with 1 circuit or more. Let's see tomorrow morning how time goes.

Cheers

Thanks Guys for your help. All went very well. The Voortrekkers and parents went away with big smiles. We left a lekker after taste in their mouths and they will be speaking about the experience for many years.
