Have you found your new ones? Since I fitted mine (and the new prop?) some 20 hrs ago, I have not had any problems. (^^) Just replace the broken one and the rest when we come back. :wink: I now have a locking wire tool, which you are welcome to borrow. (!!) But only if you come with to Springs! :lol:

To all, please support the Springs pilots (East Rand Flying Club). They go to a lot of trouble to make the breakfast and then they give it away for free. ##

The new springs are in the cupboard....have you got some safety wire I can use in your hanger? I dont think I have enough in the saddle bag and Hans is still away. :wink: I'm sure the school will have in any event.

Will prob have to meet you guys at Springs after I change my existing springs to the new springs and throw away the old springs which are very crap springs... ^

...and now for something completely different....

I am in need of the following props for a stag party coming up soon....can any of you Tailwinds lend me the following if you have one? :lol:

1: Set of handcuffs..(dont worry, I wont ask why you own them )
2: Paintball gun
3: A 1 minute/30second Hour Glass timer (yes that thing with the sand that the Egyptians used before stopwatches were invented)

Just change your springs at Springs...they have lots of springs there :lol:

I have some locking wire...but then you come to Springs and change your springs there.

Can't help with your stag list. Aidan has sold his Paintball gun and Dionne is using the handcuffs every night. My stop watch for the Nav competition is digital...the sand job one was difficult to use in an open cockpit so I turfed it :lol: . Sorry.. ^

Hi Stertwind Chommies. Ek beplan ook om saam met julle te gaan brekkie by "Vere"(Springs in Ingils). Bundy ek voel net soos Paul vere vir jou vere. Waarom moet almal vervang word?. Vlieg eers "Vere" toe en terug, dan help ons almal jou om die vere te vervang met 'n koue een in die hand. Kan ek enige iets saam bring behalwe my vriendelike self? Kallie het my gebel en sal moontlik ook more saam vlieg en dalk ook braai.
