Howdy all,

I am still a starter however can we confirm some details.

What time to meet at the BP Papakura beside the motorway?

Do we need a navigator as I may end up flying solo?

What time do we anticipate getting back on the Southern Motorway to start heading for home (affects whether I will be solo!)

Looking forward to see you and Zs on the road

Cheers

Your kite will have to pass our stringent inspection to ensure that it complys with the rules, that are a secret.

Submax will be checking to see that you dont have a small turbo charged engine hidden under one of the flaps we know you aircraft engineer types

It is too far forward, and i cant put it into first third or fifth when the center console is on, Just getting it bent back about an inch, so it will clear the front of the console. Triples arent on as yet, Murray from Weber Specs isnt very well at the moment, and we are waiting on him to set up the linkages and whatnot. But the round tops are all balanced and run sweet now

Well sorry guys I am out - I won't be going to the trail, I have bad head cold, fever etc so I don't want to pass it around. Enjoy the day.
