Is well ahead of me. Not only his glider is faster then mine, but also I took my time enjoying the view. The entire flight was just over a hour long and I used up about 4,5 Litres of fuel. Is a lot (usually I use just under 4 Litres for one hour in the air). But then again, I did chage my altitude and direction constantly, after all I did not want to 'miss' anything :-)

I definitely must improve my photographing skills. The entire flight was just over a hour long and I used up about 4,5 Litres of fuel.

To shoot or not to shoot ?

Thanks God, the 2009 election in South Africa is over. Is mind boggeling to see how well the press shifted attention from crime to election covering. Of course, crime is South Africa's 'dead trap' and as such, never stops. Election or not. See if you can spot the bullet holes. Most went thru the back window. A few hit the boot though. All 3 suspects managed to get away, although, at least one was hit/injured. I am 100% and that's the important part :-)
