Re: Africa cup 2012
Don't stay away because you think the weather looks bad-Numbi is in the lowveld,you can fly the whole day 
If it rain,we'll stay in the "cockpit with a roof fan" for longer

Re: Africa cup 2012
Unfortunately I have to be back in Pretoria on Sunday or will have to find a new job... (Busy with project going live)
Which will mean I will have to stop flying... And that is NOT on!

Correct decision. Tomorrow looks good. CAVOK with a 12 kt SW at 8000 ft. The Petit pilots are taking off at 5.30 routing FAMB, Kwena and Numbi. ETA Numbi 9.15 to grab the best parking spots!!
