Damn, so close, and yet so far :cry:
I'm getting close to finishing my licence, but won't have it in time :(
Trike's also grounded. Needs testing and ATF & Hans is away.

I'll make sure to join your next flyaway tho, when I'm better prepared :wink:

Anyone interested in NOT going straight back on Sunday the 25th but making a long weekend out of it as Tuesday is a public holiday?
I was thinking a round trip Thaba Moi, Kunkuru, Koedoeskop, Kokoriba and then maybe Oupa Paul's (Bluemax) place before we head back on Tuesday.

Also please let me know if you are interested in taking a pax to help with fuel and serve as ballast. I have a friend who wants to go with but my backseat is already full.

Hi Paul,

Thanks for pointing out the holiday on the Tuesday vhpy
I'll surely make use of it even if it is only to visit Oom Paul on the way back.

I've got a possible passenger for the weekend but now with the extended weekend the person may not join.
I will keep you posted on the seat availability.

Great, JCH, at least I am not flying alone!

I suggest the following:

Sunday ThabaMoi to Kunkuru (Or there abouts), 70Miles, for breakfast and lunch and then in the afternoon on to Kokoriba , 43Miles along the crocodile river, for the night.
Monday Kokoriba to Elands Quad Camp 100 Miles. Maybe a leg stretch at Rust de Winter.
Tuesday Back home 80Miles.

All the places above have alternatives close by if they can not accommodate us.

Anyone else? I need to phone for availability etc.
