Fantastic video Bambi!!! Just makes want to pack my bags and head to SA for some GA flying :) The "human jack" lifting up the 172 was hilarious ! Looking forward to see more videos! Greetings Joe
Hi Bambi. Maurits is looking older , must be all that PPL responsibility. If having a flat tyre is the only problem you have with a plane Fate is smiling on you. Stay safe and keep smiling. Regards, Jim in NI UK
That was a nice flight Bambi with flat tyres. People were so nice to help you and their hospitality is wonderful. I love more flying videos of you Bambi. Thank you for your kindness
LEKKER! :) Such an over used term in South Africa, and can be used in so many ways to describe something/anything good. Very applicable to your VLOGs. Going to be flying at some of the higher altitude airports with Lanseria (HLA) at 1,372m ASL and OR Tambo (JNB) at 1,680m. Looking forward to your next VLOGS flying over our inland territories. Congrats to Mauritis on his PPL, but then again with such a lovely instructor...
I bambi and pals. Hope all are well. Brilliant flight a part from the flat.the weather is brilliant my be two hot for me. Can not wait to see you again some day philip. Have a brilliant time and don't forget to live life to the full. Philip.
Looove the “Rocket“ (this is how we call it here in France) !! It has the best power/speed/agility/useful load/price ratio - and a cooler name - compared to the 182 and the 172RG and it's really easy to fly! Good job Bambi!
Hey welcome to my home town Bloemfontein. I hope you enjoyed your little visit. Funny thig is, I used to grew up there at New Tempe, my father used to skydive there. 😅
Congrats on the PPL, Maurits. Have you done upset recovery training, yet (spins, loops, etc)? Rosita!! As always, nice to see one of your videos. You exude positivity, and offer more than you realize, for aviation.
If you ever tire of Europe/Africa...Hollywood would welcome you with open arms....much care would have to be taken but I think you are pursuing the correct patch...I wish you all the good fortune that your wings can take you..
Nice charming video like always. Good stuff. The 172 Rocket is a solid sky jeep. Seldom you get to see this one. Great! Please give your fiancé some more radio training and coaching. It is an advantage to get better and saver on this by time. No fault to do this. His flying was good 👍 on the sky Jeep. Keep on going. Like your videos a lot. Thanks. ☺️👍👌
Some useless trivia, IWR used to be nicknamed “Patricia” and lived at FASH (no idea where the Patricia came from). She’s a super low time Reims Rocket, and rocking a brand new paint job and interior. Kudos to the chaps at Skyhawk for helping you out with the flat!
What an exciting trip for a ppl. I bet he enjoyed every minute. I’m about to finish my aptl and I’d love to fly down there through South Africa. Well, I’d love to fly through any country to be honest haha
hello from Johannesburg. i'm just going to follow you because i love flying but cannot afford to do it for fun yet, i hope you are enjoying our beautiful country
Complimenten voor de editing, beeld en geluid... We hebben der weer van genoten! Daarnaast, complimenten voor Maurits. Het zag der heel goed en professioneel uit!! Mag ook eens gezegd worden! :)
Nice flight, too bad I haven't seen much instruments nor some performance figures for that Reims Rocket in this video. Although I even install my Ipad with Skydemon in the C172 G1000 that I rent from time to time, I only use it as an extra backup (it's not even a legal navigation aid anyway). Looking forward for the next video.
Hahahaha used to pull targets for competition shooting there all the way from Bethlehem in the middle of winter... never forget putting our hands in ice buckets to wake up🤣🤣🤣🤣
Well done on getting your PPL, Maurits! 👍 Strange to see you in the passenger seat, Rosita! I’m looking forward to the Jonker Sailplanes factory tour. Their gliders are really doing well across the world! Good question to ask them: “Why did you go; JS1, JS3, JS2 with your models?”
Used to be home town Bloemfontein before we moved to Holland. Enjoyed your video very much. From whom dis you rent the plane? The flight school at Tempe?
Jonker Sailplanes YES. JS 3 Rapture. RSA succeeds where USA never could, competing with the brilliant German aeronautical engineers. (And now self launching electrics are virtually here as viable choices from DE).
Congrats to Maurits owning a PPL now!!! So happy to see you both flying and being able to take turns legally ... so at some later point you could plan longer trips, like around the globe :-) Anyway I am glad you figured out the tire issue before destroying the rim. While looking at the footage, it seems the tire was still OK on touch down and then I guess while taxiing something got into it. I guess the repair work and parts are all covered by the rental insurance? I am not a native English speaker and "Please report crew pax onboard" at 9:56 was something I had to google ... so PAX is the short for passengers?, so she was technically just asking for POB in a very different way, or did I miss something here? Does it also say PAX in the flightplan in S.A.? One more question, what do you realistically pay as an normal student without special connections for a 152 and instructor per hour? Is there any flight school you can recommend? Have a wonderful last few weeks, collect as many hours as you can and looking forward to see more adventures with both of you soon.

Hello
If you ever tire of Europe/Africa...Hollywood would welcome you with open arms....much care would have to be taken but I think you are pursuing the correct patch...I wish you all the good fortune that your wings can take you..
Thanks for translating "ya" for us - made me smile!
Actually, that is spelled "Ja" in Dutch, which makes it even more difficult to translate. 😁

The best aircraft of all Tailwheel Aircraft was the PA-150 Piper Super Cub which is my most favorite tail dragged

I cant hold myself :D
Hope you guys had a lekker braai!
👍 P. Bamby, nice video.
A question about navigators: What advantages has Skydemon over Garmin or Foreflight?
Thankyou in advance.
Where is the best/cheapest place to get a PPL @Pilotbambi Is there a cheap place in South Africa??
Jonker Sailplanes YES. JS 3 Rapture. RSA succeeds where USA never could, competing with the brilliant German aeronautical engineers. (And now self launching electrics are virtually here as viable choices from DE).
