Hi Nick, daar was een diefstal, mid Junie. Die geld was gesteel en ons recover nog.

Hi Riaan, jy is baia welkom. Ons braai elke derde Saterdag van die maand. Sien ook "events".

Hi Riaan,
Andries hier, ook van Secunda, ek sal jou graag wil ontmoet en sal by die braai wees die 27ste Julie. Ek beplan om my Aquilla Secunda toe te vlieg vanaf Microland gedurende die eerste week in Augustus. Uiteindelik 'n hangar gekry (^^) (^^) Sterkte met die opleiding, jy is by die beste vliegskool! s023
Paul, Bundy, all the tailwind members, many scrumptious chops, wors and steaks with the new braai (^^) See u all soon, safe trip to Barberton! !!!!

Glad we could "commission" the new braai on Sat. (^^)

My thanks to all the battery change supervisors... :lol:

It is clear that not much thought went into the "thought process" when designing the Aquilla 2's battery box... :roll:

But...many swear words later and DBP's starting issues seem to be a thing of the past. The new battery swings that prop like a sumo wrestler. vhpy

Great mates, a couple beers...some braaivleis...I dont know if my liver will be able to survive the bonds of friendship being formed under this grasdak at ML. Had a great time chaps, so nice to go fly and then chill out with the "braai brothers".

To all going to BBton on Fri, Fly safe!...look after yourselves and have a blast. (^^)
