Great Jaco...the gaggle is growing..the skies are going to be dark with Tailwinds.

Ok. Some pictures of my iPad pouch which is 99.99999999999999999999% waterproof. Just finished and ready for tomorrow am flight. vhpy

It cost R2500 per pouch if you want one. Plus labour. vhpy

It consists of a plastic book pouch, a bent 3mm aluminium plate, elastic straps and velcro. Oh.....and Genkem and some closed cell foam padding. Won't come off...I hope. ## O toggie iPad strike...prop AND iPad to replace..if you survive. ##

For sure Piet.

We had an awsome flight to Aero Den. And to our hosts Linda ... the brekkie was great. The landing reported by all ...bumpy...trying to concentrate on the landing while looking at the side fences...to keep the buck out I gues. A bit bumpy on the way back but thats fun tooUooHo. (**)

Some pics of our trip. Thanks to D. my lovely co-pilot.
