Sim: FS2004

Online: Globalsim/Squawkwin/Teamspeak

Aircraft: Extra 300

Route: FASX (Swellendam) FAAS (Ashton) FARS (Robertson) FACE (Ceres) FAFK (Fisantekraal) FASH (Stellenbosch)

Again we see action in Swellendam. We took off and headed North to Ashton along a beautiful mountain range. At Ashton we turn left Nort West for a 9nm leg to Robertson. It was easy to navigate here as you could follow the main road from FASX to the turn off between Ashton/Montague. The beautiful Breede River on the left was a sight!

At Robertson we turn right over the mountains to Ceres. A tricky landing here as there ar’nt much mention of a runway. After everybody caught up, we departed to Fisantekraal. This was a beautiful leg as we crossed the mountain to Wellington and then to Paarl. A few more miles sees a touch and go at Fisantekraal on runway 23. From there it’s practically a hip and a hop straight in to Stellenbosch runway 19.

 As I was travelling in a aerobatic aircraft, I performed a SKEW  inverted fly by! It was’nt perfect but great fun.

We all arrived safely on FASH. Participants was ZS-PGR, ZS-ALS, ZS-INK, ZS-APB, ZS-RJM, ZS-NEL, ZS-MRD, ZS-DVH and of course me.
