A short distance coastal flight today that took a long time with the de Havilland Tiger Moth.

Join me for a ride along this beautiful coastline...

We pass the rocky outcrop on the right called Buffalo Bay (Buffelsbaai in Afrikaans) and head toward the Knysna area

We now clearly see the Knysna Heads (entrance to the Knysna lagoon) Much sought after residential area!

Beyond Knysna we follow the coast till we have Plettenberg Airport in sight and start the approach

Approaching the modest P3D airport terminal building (I'll have to find some good freeware to fix that)

The Tiger comes to a standstill... time to soak up some sun & enjoy the surf!
