Looking Back

Hi, I have been with 'free to adventure' since, well basically the beginning. I remeber about 5 or 6 months ago being invited by mark, an email correspondent at the time to join this marvelous site! At the time there were only about 15-20 members! It's incredible going from a small site to a HUGE one with over 300 members. I have been to numerous sites and spread the word of 'free to adventure'. I remember the day I met Mark, it was in April (I think) and i went out to my airfield, also mark's,… Continue

A Great Adventure...

The guys have got back from flying the blue.
I emailed mark yesterday and he said it was absolutely incredible!
When I whent to go help them pack on the saturday before they left, I was ready to bop one of them off.
They seem to have had a great time.
Keep going on adventures guys.
Until next time, we are 'FREE TO ADVENTURE'...

Flying the blue success (so far!)

I have been following the free to adventure page for a long time now. And this flying the blue adventure is a great one!! Mark, Maximus & Tjeerd really have something to be proud of. I helped mark and maximus dissasemble the trikes 2 days before they left, this involved, changing a gaskit (On Tjeerd's Gearbox), Removing the wing, folding the wing, getting the trikes on the trailers and last but not least, packing the spares. I am glad to see they are having a good expedition.
Keep it up guys… Continue

Aerotrike is Safari with Rotac 582 and fly from Morningstar. Not doing much trike flying as I am partner in Bushbaby so unless perfect weather prefer 3 axis. Goodluck with training.

I joined this and then didn't pay much attention, but recently have found loads of good stuff. When you asked which trike I flew it would have been a Q 462, but I am now instructing with a QTM 912.

Anyway, have resigned from the Army and coming to live in Cape Town!

Thanks for the invite. My trike is hangared on a farm up the West Coast, I don't fly around Cape Town much. How's your training going, when are you due to finish?

Cheers
Steve

of pilots and we do fly every weekend. Enjoy having a look at all the photos
and videos on the site.

Yes, nowdays it is a Kitfox Series 7
Some of the pictures are with Kitfox IV,,,
Why asking?

At 9:45pm on October 31, 2008, Sam Coffee said…: Sad photo's, (the storm) The 'slime' fixed the punctures, however the trike sat for a week without being moved and the materal apparently settled to the bottom (lowest spot) of the tires, all three. Ed pittman made the next takeoff and described the tooth jaring viberation as very interesting. I observed the bad shaking of the trike from the ground and upon the subsequent landing. currently checking out fixed wing and the tires you sugested and will replace the out of balence tires before next flight

HARLEY RIDERS CALL IT "HOG SNOT", SHOULD FIX IT AND PREVENT FUTURE DIFFICULTIES. WEATHER IS COOLING DOWN BUT STILL FLYING THIS WEEKEND.

Thanks for the comments regarding my pics. Unfortunately I don't fly anything anymore. I run my own photo/video studio and just love taking photos - hobby thing too.
