PS
I am still trying to recover from the almost 5 hrs on the "foamless seat"







All's well that ends well... Was still too stiff to try fly the Animal again on Friday and had time & WX issues to get back to Jhb for Coves site meet and kids social calendar (There is a moerse que of oukes wanting a flip - Some from far afield...) Am back in Jhb for weekend and next week will make a dent on paperwork, try get to grips with the engine and manual Boet made me swot on Thurs before solo flight. When I landed he was jumping up and down I thought I had cocked something up? Seems he was just happy to have Animal back on ground in 1 piece....







Flight back was LOOOOOONG and landing at FAVB in 20+gusting X wind was something I prefer not to do again. Animal almost ended up on Roof













Below the pics from Kalahari Rat...... They pretty much speak for themselves....
"HELLO DAAR"

Wash windscreen, check the fuel and tyres and fill up the oil





And some more....

Time for a quick flip on Wed night... (Wind was HUGE -99kts in 182RG handicapped in air race at over 150kts... Do the math






Winding the rubber band nice and tight... (For longer flight time)

Is Olie genoeg....

Luister nou Mooi ou Pel......














Then

Boet's first view from the outside...

Boetless in air for the first time






Followed by plenty low passes... The sound on the ground is awesome when she goes directly overhead...
