    Dear All
    Just a quick note to let you all know that I have returned from our trip to Borneo. I will be catching up with all my emails and forum duties as soon as I can. I have a lot to catch up on so please be patient with me.

    And yes as the title suggests we did have several near death experiences this year. If it was not the mad, Tokyo drifting, 30ft skidding, kamikaze, racing taxi drivers trying to finish us off! the planes nearly did..

    The near miss on landing and the pilot desperately doing a fighter pilot turn 10ft of the ground to avoid a plane that pulled out in front of us on landing. Nearly put pay to us all.... oh well all part of the adventure. and what makes it all such bloody great fun.

    Registrations are now open again, and I would like to thank Colin and Phil for looking after things in my absence. Cheers guys.

    Regards
    Mark

    welcome back safe and sound Mark...my goodness, i am glad i couldn't go with that kind of air trouble, i am bad enough with flying as it is!
    what a relief you're all ok though!!!

    hope you all had a great time

        James, I can safely say that not one of the 10 planes we went on came anywhere as close to finishing me off as that last taxi, I saw my life flash before my eyes ...and they were closed tight most of the time! lol. All good fun.

          Ahh yes that last taxi ride was a classic!...... surprising the speed you can get out of a 10 year old proton with no brakes, suspension or tread on its tires...


          Bliss!

          can wait to get back.

          Cheers

                thought I recognised the bloke in that plane above us! something about the terror on his face made me doubt it

                Good to have you back
                Looking forward to reading of your adventures.
