By Willie Bodenstein<br />
<br />
The Kitty Hawk annual RV Fly-in jointly sponsored by Wonderboom based Sport Plane Builders and Robin Coss Aviation has been growing in leaps and bounds and this year almost seventy aircraft visited. Approximately forty were Vans RVs of all types. Twelve were the company's flagship model, the RV10. Peter Lea, who flew his RV 10 from Baberton recalled that when he attended the first RV Fly-in his was the only one on the field.<br /><br />

<b>Kitty Hawk RV and Vintage Car Day 2017</b></h2>
<h4>
<span style="font-size: x-small;">By Juri Keyter and Cheryl Smit</span> </h4>
Although it is already spring in South Africa, it was certainly not spring at Kitty Hawk on Saturday the 2nd of September during the RV and vintage car day. When I took off from Krugersdorp it was chilly but nothing compared to Kitty Hawk when I landed. The wind was also pumping from the South East and the wind shear over the northern hangars made my landing on runway 19 very interesting. All I could do was to hold on tight (and I probably also closed my eyes)...<a href="http://www.pilotspost.com/arn0001317" target="_blank">read more>>> </a><br />

Kitty Hawk situated on the east of Pretoria is one of the best organised
and friendliest clubs around. It's imposing thatch clubhouse/
restaurant is a popular venue not only for aviators that flock there on
weekends but also for others from the community. Family friendly, the
club's well maintained grass apron offers visitors the opportunity to
get close to the large numbers of aircraft that visit whilst enjoying a
meal in the open air. <br />

Once a year the club organise a fly in open to all but aimed at the Vans
RV community. In the past owners of the Lotus Car Club were also
invited. This year they broke from tradition and invited the MG Car Club
of South Africa. <br />

The MG Car Club of South Africa combined centres hold a national meeting
every two years, hosted by one of the six MG Car Club centres that are
affiliated to the MG Car Club in England. This year it fell to the
Northern Centre to organize and it was held at Kitty Hawk Aerodrome with
the theme being a throwback to the prewire days when an outing to the
Aerodrome was a special occasion and an opportunity to have a picnic.
Kitty Hawk was chosen, not only due to its proximity to Cullinan, which
was the venue for the Sunday outing but the excellent Restaurant
facility run by Wilma Fourie, who ensured the 160 participants at the
Indaba were well fed and looked after for the day.<br />

Frank van Heerden, chairman of the Aerodrome suggested we combine our
event with RV day, this ensured that the MG Car Club members were
treated to a special aerobatic display and the RV members got to see the
top four cars in the country compete for the prestigious d'etat prize
as best car of the event in their class.<br />

Having driven in from all corners of South Africa to attend this event,
the 80 cars participated in driving tests and a treasure hunt rally in
the areas surrounding Kitty Hawk. In addition to the 80 cars on the
event, there were an additional 20 or so MG 's that arrived as day
visitors, swelling the number of cars on the day to well 100 cars.<br />
