Letter from South Africa I recieved an email from Steve, a south african who owns a Cheetah and uses it for photography there.  I thought it was very good information as it pertains to safety and really thinking about our decisions when faced with a situation.  I have included it in it's entirety.  I hope you find it useful. . Jon ============================================================================== Greetings Jon, I gather you are well and productively promoting Cheetahs. Your Christmas eve newsletter is well received and with thanks. I was somewhat drawn to the pic of the snow, its because its something we don’t even conceive of here in sunny South Africa. I did however have a recent “weather” related experience which you may be interested in reading. Our world has a way of periodically measuring us, by throwing occasional curved balls and I figured that as an aviator, you’d be interested in my ‘test’ of late November.

100th Cheetah Gathering of Light sport Aircraft

Saturday, 14 March 2009 18:00 Last Updated on Thursday, 19 March 2009 21:06 Written by Administrator

100meet1100th Cheetah gathering of Light Sport Aircraft.
Cheetah number 100 was delivered this fall of 2008 and in January,2009 an event was planned.  Weather did not cooperate but I thought I'd share a recent email and photos that I recieved from Rainbow Aircraft (pty) ltd in South Africa.








Good morning Jon,

The Cheetah 100 Event was quite a success. Due to bad weather, most of the Cheetah owners were absent, but we still had a few present, and some beautiful pictures were taken.

The sun was up and the mist gone by 11:00, the journalists and Cheetah owners took off for some air-to-air photos after joining us for some coffee/juice, and returned safely to join us for some breakfast at the local airfield Pub, called; Silver wings. The media received ample time to ask both the Cheetah Owners and Vladimir some questions on the technical and performance spec of the Cheetah.

Rainbow Aircraft surprised some of the guys with gifts, and everyone received a badge to prove their presence. After enjoying the deliciously prepared breakfast, the Cheetah owners and Media were greeted and took off. We missed each and every Cheetah owner/pilot who could not join us on this memorable day.

The Cheetah 100 Event will be published in some magazines, I'll surely keep everyone informed about this.

Attached please find some pictures taken at the event.

May you have a fantastic weekend!

Kind regards,
Ray Cornelissen
