9 August 2008

Flew with Shane, Graham, Philippe from Altona to Diemerskraal, where Anton was proudly showing us TCT, a Cobra with a 912 and all the trimmings. Makes DVE look like a jeloppie.
Graham had some prop-lems, which I am sure he will tell all about somewhere else on this forum. Met Philippe and Jana, who are new to Wintervogel (ex Contermanskloof, and trained at Fisantekraal).

Got to complete my F650 picture at Aurora this weekend. See http://www.zu-dve.com for the log.

On Thursday I did the same manouvers with ZS-WUO, a Windlass with a 503 and no add-ons. Comparing the manouverability, ZU-DVE is an ox-wagon, thus not as smooth a picture as I would have liked.

Flew with Dirk to FASH. When we were about to takeoff this character came to tell us we owe him R80.00 for landing! Since the runway is 870m long, and we landed in 110m and took off in 80m, what do you recon we owe them?
