Default Hi - from sunny South Africa

Good day to all.
I am new to the thread and am just getting back into RC flying after an absence of about 23 years. Goodness, how things have changed.
I live in Somerset West, on the coast, about 50km from Cape Town and very close to Stellenbosch, right in the wine region of RSA.
I am currently flying a 72" Sommenzini Yak with a 180 Saito on board, and really working hard just trying to find my fingers again.
In my garage is still a uncompleted Byron Pitts - just shows how long I have been away.

Point Google Earth to
Helderberg Radio Flyers
34° 2'48.24"S
18°44'24.49"E - to find our flying club
