Gawie Venter… a gentleman. Not sure if Gawie will remember, but whilst with Court Helicopters, he once flew the then CEO of Sun International, from the waterfront in Cape Town to Caledon in a Jet Ranger during the mid to late 90’s (cannot remember exact date). After lunch, and as they were preparing for the return flight, the chopper wouldn’t start, so we jump started it using a VW Caddy bakkie. The CEO was green with anxiousness 🤣🤣. A few months later, Gawie invited my wife, a friend, and I, to fly with him in a Sikorsky to an oil tanker, which was rounding the Cape, to rotate ships crew and drop supplies. It was an awesome experience.
Dankie Maj Gawie... ek dink ek het op 'n kol op Ondangs saam gery... of, ons was saam daar op 'n chopper toer?? Elk geval... het u saam met Oom Ben vd Westhuizen gewerk? Ek wonder dikwils oor sy lewe na die SAAF?

Wow, lekker to listen to your stories. Baie dankie oom Gawie en oom At 😀💪
Salute / Saluut.
Ek het die voorreg gehad om saam met Gawie te vlieg die naweek, as deel van 'n NSRI water reddings oefening. Baie aangenaam en nederige mens.
Two delightful gentleman; thank you for your service, Majoor.
Dit was baie lekker om te luister Gawie, nou moet jy begin met die stories oor wat jy alles orals gedoen het.
Baie dankie. Het dit geniet
