Mad Easter week

It's been a mad week over Easter with our Flight School opening and our first flights over the long weekend. My kids are scattered and each seemed to have had an amazing Easter period in their different parts of the world. Kate has just published her update to her blog on her adventures in Korea.. see the side blog to the right which links to hers, and Mark has been spending time with Lisa's family in Cape Town.

Work is also pressing as I am off to the States on Wednesday so only have one and a half days to tie things up there before I go to California for my seaplane rating. Woo Hoo!! Excitement.

No Skyye fall...

With my new awning up at my office to shade my new "Skyye" car, I was worried that the Skyye might fall, hence the caution warning signs.. ha ha. No really, the shadeport juts out into our building driveway and we need to caution drivers to look out for the reduced height if they are in delivery vans and also mind my car as they come around the bend. My car registration promotes our new Flight School which opened at Virginia Airport last week - Durban Skyye Flight School.

Microlight Flight with Durban Skyye Flight School

I launched our Durban Skyye Flight School this weekend having received our Civil Aviation Aviation Training Organisation approval certificate on Friday (CAA ATO 0253). Llewellyn and I were among the first to go up into the Durban Skyye in our microlight Aquilla trike ZU-CCL with the rushing wind in our faces and breathtaking close-up views of the beachfront as our Chief Flying Instructor Brad expertly guided the aircraft returning to Virginia Airport, our home base.
