2014 got off to a flying start with some flights around Durban. The sun has been beating down with temperatures over 30c, so later afternoons have been preferable - am also hoping for a night flight soon and a flight to Port Elizabeth to check out a second hand plane I am keen on buying for a flight school my previous instructor, Brad, and I are about to start for NPL instruction.

| It was beach weather for the Umhlanga beach north of Durban |

| Approaching Durban following the Special Rules routing from the south takes you along the Bluff to the harbour entrance at 1500 ft, then north to Virginia Airport |

| New Years Day is the traditional pilgrimage of the "Black Ants" - locals, but the 4th January was pretty busy too as they swarmed into the sea. |
