Arthur Gemperle
 |
Arthur, a retired
mechanical engineer spends his life enjoying aviation to the fullest.
He started paragliding 9 years ago and logged over 1000 hours. Then he
decided to look for an aircraft where he could land on wheels & not on his
feet anymore. He bought a Magni gyrocopter, which Arthur believes is the
ultimate flying machine. Arthur still enjoys paragliding as a quiet way of
flying and has been flying the gyrocopter for 5 years, a total of almost
2000 hours in the air. Arthurs longest flight covered a total distance of
6500 km, which is equivalent from Johannesburg to Cairo one way. Arthur
always enjoys having a passenger to share the MAGNIficent flying machine &
flight experience. |

Noel McDonogh
 |
In 1994 Noel taught himself to fly
hang-gliders on the beach at Scottburgh on the South Coast. He competed in
numerous competitions: SA national hang-gliding champs in Graaff Reinet in
1999, where he came 2nd; Western Province hang-gliding champs in 2000, in
which he came 8th, Gauteng hang-gliding champs in 2001, where he came 4th.
He continued hang-gliding, and started powered hang-gliding (a modified,
foot-launchable hang-gliding harness with a 125cc motor and a propeller
attached). Noel completed his radio licence course at ATNS Durban. In
2004 he undertook his MPL. During this
time Noel continued to fly to accumulate his 200 hours flight time for his
instructor rating. In Feb 2006 Noel obtained his Instructor rating. |

| Tristam Burrell |
|
 |
2 April 1961 - 18 June 2006
Tristam started flying in 1991 and owned 1 of the largest Paragliding
Schools in South Africa, he instructed full-time in Paragliding, Powered
Paragliding and Prara-Trikes. Tristam was extremely passionate about
his sport. His enthusiasm has encouraged hundreds of people to take to
the sky. For many people it changed their lives and inspired them to
become pilots, for others it was an experience that they will never forget.
It was Tristam's passion for flying that inspired me to start Sky
Adventures. I wanted to create opportunity for others to experience
the excitement and enjoyment of flying. Tristam was a spiritual person
who made everyone feel good about themselves. He will be greatly
missed; it is remembering his words of encouragement, his support and his
love for flying that has inspired me to continue to follow my dream.
"A more special person, one could not find. To know you - was to love
you" "I look up to the sky and smile; I know that you are
smiling at me too" (Wendy Richards)
