Hi everyone :-) *GR8 to have service 'back'!
Question for any */ all interested: *What is your travel time / distance
(round trip?) from home to gliding / soaring club - site? *Not that will
make any difference to actual journey I need to take but knowing what
fellow enthusiast 'endure' to enjoy our fantastic sport / hobby will
probably make me feel 'much better' (s a factor in choosing which club
to join here in South Africa)! *From my home (Benoni) must allow 4 hrs
(approx 350 Km) average for any of the 'local' clubs...
Thanks in advance. *FLY SAFE! *very best regards Nigel R


14 miles (as the crow flies). Takes me about 25 minutes each way.
