First FLIGHT

Last weekend Jac Snyman took his first flight in his Phoebus. Reminded me of years ago when i crewed for another pilot flying Steve Murray's Phoebus at Tempe airfield, Bloemfontein - that was in the early 70's and i could barely see over the Chev Camaro i had to drive back from the launchpoint!!!

Here's a photo of Jac

Gordon (Storm Chasers) predicts as follows:

"Looking at the models this morning (Fri 19th) gives a bit more clarity to the system, but no change to the basic forecast.The next 8 hours in Cape Town will be sunny and warm. Tonight high clouds from an upper-trough will move in, mostly to the east. On Sat 20th a front will brush offshore, and together with the trough bringing cooler and cloudy air, but no rain for CT.On Sun 21st a strong front will be developing to the west of CT, but will not make landfall until the morning of Mon 22nd. The system will develop further during Tues 23rd, with very strong winds (> 60km/h) likely, and lingering till Wed 24th.By Thur 25h the cold and wet weather should exit over the eastern half of SA, and clear skies should prevail for CT, though likely very cold.
