For the pilot who is new to Porterville, we have a special briefing each morning at the Lodge.
This intensive discussion explains the forecast daily weather with the expected flying conditions and the variation in the winds as the day progresses.
Our safety approach includes our liaising daily with the ATC at the air force training school at Langebaanweg – about 100km to the west.
If we’re approached in advance for retrieve service, we will organise it; and pilots who are new to Porterville are encouraged to ask for advice on this.
In any event, this aspect of retrieve is always mentioned at our daily pilots’ briefings, which all new pilots are encouraged to attend.
