When we arrived at the Dinosaur Derby there were already around two hundred invited guests that had set up their chairs and picnic tables on the green slopes of the lawns outside the beautiful clubhouse overlooking the very large balloon launch field with the majestic Magaliesberg Mountains as the backdrop. The action started soon after our arrival as the various balloon pilots prepared the inflate their balloons firstly with cold air blowers and then the burners blowing heated air into the 14 balloons that were all attached with ropes to the vehicles on the field. Once the sun set and all the balloons were fully inflated the announcer called for a countdown and all balloons lit up with a hot air burn. Thanks to Charlie and Fiona Hugo, Christine, Bjorn Bottin and his daughter Angelique for joining me at this exciting aviation event. What a beautiful sight and the full feature will be published within the May edition of African Pilot.Videography & Photography by Athol Franz & Björn Bottin, visit http://africanpilot.co.za for more info.

Dinosaur Derby night glow at the Bill Harrop’s Balloon field

On Saturday I drove to Airspan airfield as my first visit to this delightful facility with a paved 860 metre runway and ample parking for the 35 plus aircraft that arrived. The purpose was for Col Jeff Earle to present his lecture on ‘formation flying’, which was well attended by EAA Chapter members as well as several other interested pilots. Airspan airfield is well located close to Rustenburg and well away from the usual scourge of squatters that always appear to illegally occupy land close to airfields in South Africa. This airfield has a very large hangar with a bi-fold door that is ideal for hosting functions as well as an immaculate training centre catering for drone training, water drilling training and the operating of very large mining equipment amongst other related training courses. More on Airspan airfield and the future development of this privately owned property in a future edition of African Pilot.
