Re: Cosmos 2009
Wow, great shot Cobra !
At the moment no braai packs have been organized, I will have a chat to the person running the Rhino restaurant but if that fails we can always go and buy meat as needed on the day, there will be a few cars at Rhino and the field is not far from Rayton/Cullinan.
Everything is neat and tidy at Rhino, the runways are in good condition and the grass has been cut.
This is going to be fun !!

Hi Ian,
I agree, I like the top pic, but the shadow in the second one also makes it special.
You can always join us, even if it is for just a while !
Fly safe,
Rudi

Re: Cosmos 2009
So, unfortunately it seems that I will not be flying the cosmos with you guys this weekend, but I may just have time to come visit you Sat morning at Rhino or Kitty Hawk.

Re: Cosmos 2009
Hi Rudix and other Rhino/Kitty okes,
We're 2 Trikes from Circus that will definitely be joining you guys on Sat morning. Another 2 or 3 will possibly join and we're flying via Klip to see if there's someone there that want to join. I just have a few questions and would appreciate if someone could help me out
1. Where should we go first, Rhino, the cosmos fields or Kitty Hawk. We'd like to join up with a some of you as we don't know the area and where the best spots are.
2. Are there any special procedures, heard that it can get quite hectic with a swarm of trikes buzzing the cosmos fields
3. Are you operating on 125.400 or a different frequency, does Rhino and Kitty have dedicated frequencies?
We're leaving at 6am sharp and should be there around 7:15, WX dependant.
Thanks in advance,
Mike Skinner.

Great that you will be joining us !
I think the guys at Rhino will leave pretty early for the Cosmos fields, how early I suppose will depend a lot on the night before

We will only be going to Kitty hawk after the first cosmos trip so we won't be there before 9/10 or so at the earliest.
I am not sure about special procedures, I suppose we will discuss it on the ground on Friday, I will see if I can post it here Friday, will take a laptop with 3G along.
Rhino's frequency is 135.600 and Kitty hawk is 120.650. Along the way you will also be passing Petit on 133.200 and Bapsfontein/Microland on 120.350
Looking forward to seeing everyone, let's hope for great weather !
Fly safe,
Rudi
