Aerodynamics Briefing-Jerry van Gool

Hi Guys

 Apologies for not sending an e mail last week. This were hectic at work with the tax delaines. Mini hurricane blew through the club yesterday which made to scary landing and a couple of landing gears being removed due to the forces of nature. I counted 14 pilots who braved the blazing wind. Good stuff guys. A big thank you to Jerry van Gool who has moved the helicopter pits up to where the wooden shed used to be. I think its much better where it is lets the Chopper guys closer to the club house etc. Also Jerry very kindly donated his time and those of his employees. Thanks Jerry.

Wayne Wallace is going to display some items on Sunday 6 December 2009. So please come though and support his efforts. I do believe that the members will learn a lot about other products etc.  Tonight Jerry is holding an information night to discuss and explain some of the mysteries of flight. See below. Please see who can support this as I think we could all learn from him.  Enjoy the pics.

Hi Guys

Very good flying weather yesterday. Nice little gentle breeze down the runway. I managed to put my spitfire into the tree next to the container. Wing Commander Hopper was on the scene too late to rescue the ill fated aircraft.

16 pilots arrived until I left at around 15h00. All round some good flying.

Please don't forget the Fun Day Next Saturday. Starting around 12h00 – please stay for some boerie and a beer afterwards.

Enjoy

Peter

Hi Guys

 

Yesterday started off very nice and then one heck of a storm came through. I thought the wind would calm down but it did not. I had my P38 Lightning out to fly – wind and all. See the pics. The plane is as jittery as a guilty rapist on trial. I had a good flight but managed quite a hard landing which caused some damage. Pity will fix at some stage in the future.

 24 Pilots came through the day to fly. Nice full range of different planes.

 Welcome to Sarel Labuschagne and Jan Strydom who have joined our club. I trust you will have a good time with us.

Don't forget  7 November 2009. The FUN DAY.

 Enjoy the pics

 Peter
