Just the foreshortening a big lens causes.

It is called BORGHS and it is actually white with a silver stroke (not always visible)

Thanks Beau, I would never have guessed. I wonder how they dream up these names :roll:

Thanks for the concern guys,

As Heather correctly pointed out, Jacques Poolman (F3) was involved in a motorcycle accident in January in which he broke his wrist and tore some ligaments there as well. He resumed flying duties last week and, as of yesterday, is feeling strong enough to resume duties with the team.
Gerhard Lourens (F4) also tore some ligaments in his foot during a freak volleyball accident 3 weeks ago. Now I know what you are all thinking, but I can assure you - there was no Kenny Loggins music, big Ray-Bans, Jeans or Dogtags involved...
Gerhard should hopefully be fit again by the end of next week.


I suppose TFDC will be the last time we see gerhard in action in the Western Cape? So it will be saying Good Bye then.
