Alone I stand,
Forgotten how to trust,
A title I am brand,
For the knife in my back thrust,
In envious lust,
A pack once thought,
Once united as one,
A battle together once fought.
Till our pack shrivelled down to none,
Now alone,
In haunting silence,
No pacts just on my own,
In daunting defiance,
Forgotten,
With all the loyalties won in wars,
My trust wilted and rotten,
Torn by deceits hateful claws,
A Wounded wolf still raw,
A lone wolf forever will I be,
A wounded wolf with scars I wore,
A lone wolf for everyone to see.
''Lone Wolf'' by Lesley Rautenbach

This is a shot of the overall winner of the 2011 Total Rally, Tour of Natal. The driver was Conrad Rautenbach, from Zimbabwe, and his navigator, Nicolas Klinger, from France. The car is the S2000 spec Ford Fiesta. Needless to say, I think this was the view most of his competitors saw of him all weekend.
Those of you who know or follow Ken Block, he drives a car identical to this. Enjoy. :)
Unweit des Bahnhofs von Wernigerode steht inmitten eines zu einer Grünanlage umgestalteten früheren Friedhofs diese Säule mit einem Adler von August Gaul! Der Bildhauer schuf die Plastik im Jahr 1912 für den Wernigeroder Bürger Rautenbach, der sie vor seiner Villa aufstellte. 1949 versetzten die Kommunisten sie auf den Friedhof der Liebfrauengemeinde - die heutige Grünanlage in Bahnhofsnähe.
2007 wurde der Vogel von Metalldieben gestohlen und anschließend in Einzelteile zerlegt. Die meisten Teile wurden wiedergefunden, und die Skulptur nach der Wiederherstellung - finanziert durch Spenden der Bürger und des Wernigeroder Jagdseniorenconvents sowie einen Zuschuß aus dem Stadtetat - erneut aufgestellt.

Since January 2013, people have been uploading some of the most beautiful flower photos I have ever seen. We were very lucky to have Mandy Disher, a professional flower photographer from the United Kingdom, on our team. She chose 92 photos from a total of 649 photos which had been uploaded.
Again, Eva Maria Kroder undertook the design work and produced a beautiful photobook of the images selected by Mandy. The introduction was written by Lauren Rautenbach, known to many of you for her work in our other photobooks. It was translated into Japanese by Sueo Takano who also produced the cover for this beautiful book.
Angela Jacobi told us about the fugitive camp in Myitkyina, Myanmar (Burma) where she and her team rehabilitate children who have been traumatized and displaced by the civil war in their country. It was soon clear to us that her work was something we wanted to support with this book. Every beautiful image in the book helps Angela and her children to take one more step towards a better world.

On static display at the 2014 AAD (African Aerospace & Defence) airshow, held at Waterkloof AFB, South Africa.
20-9-2014
The following info is taken from the SAAF website:-
“The Patchen Explorer was conceived by the former Thurston Aircraft Corporation in the USA as a landplane version of its TSC-1 Teal amphibian. The development of both designs was financed by Marvin Patchen Inc, which retained the rights to the TSC-2 Explorer. The SAAF Museum now owns the one and only example of the Patchen Explorer in the world. Construction of the prototype was completed by Aerofab Corporation of Sanford, Maine, USA and the aircraft made its first flight on 13 October 1972 at the hands of test pilot Win Young. It was intended as a cheaper, faster, more maintenance-free alternative to the helicopter for such tasks as pipeline and fire patrol, fish spotting, aerial photography and police missions. The aircraft never went into production and only one prototype was built.
With a total amount of just over 200 hours flown, Marvin Patchen sold the prototype and all the rights of the Explorer to scientist Dr Maitland Reed of National Dynamics in South Africa in May 1975. The aircraft was brought to the country by Dr Reed and based at Virginia Airport where it was registered ZS-UGF. Type certification was envisaged, after it was intended to put the aircraft in production, but nothing came of this bold venture. Without any further prospects Reed offered the aircraft to the South African Air Force for evaluation purposes, still sporting its ZS-UGF registration. Test Pilot Pikkie Rautenbach flew the aircraft on 23 August 1975 and commented favourably on the Patchen Explorer.
Between 1976 and 1979 the aircraft was employed as a communication aircraft with Test Flight Development Centre, then based at AFB Waterkloof. The aircraft displayed the SAAF serial number 2000. Pilots in the SAAF, including test pilot, Bob Masson, were critical of the aircraft’s design, particularly the location of the engine. Mounted on a pylon, high above the wing, the aircraft high centre of gravity had to be managed well, especially in gusty weather. During its time with TFDC the aircraft proved handy, if under-utilized; it accumulated a mere 49 hours between 1975 and 1979. Its nose landing gear seemed susceptible to hard landings and was damaged more than once. Following another failure of the nose-wheel the Air Force seemed reluctant to repair the aircraft and the Patchen was left unattended at Waterkloof. The down-time resulted in a steady deterioration of the aircraft, as it stood idle at TFDC between 1979 and 1986. The cost to return it to flight proved unjustified and with other test flight-projects and its imminent move from Waterkloof to Overberg, Test Flight Development Centre decided to dispose of the Patchen Explorer.
Although interest was shown from civilian buyers, the SAAF disposal board decided to rather transfer the Patchen to the Air Force Museum, on account of its singular uniqueness. The nose-gear was eventually repaired, and during February 1987 the aircraft was serviced and restored back to flying condition and ferried to the Museum’s workshop at Lanseria. A superfluous Museum colour scheme was subsequently added. As an economical runabout it was flown regularly across the country to air shows, venturing as far south as Margate for the annual EAA convention and even flown down to Port Elizabeth and Cape Town on at least one occasion. By September 1989 the airframe had accumulated a total of 400 hours of flying, but the nose-gear still proved troublesome and had to be repaired yet again. The nose structure was subsequently reinforced and modified by Air Force engineers and Museum technical personnel. Seeing long periods of inactivity, in favour of other museum aircraft, the Patchen Explorer last flew in early 1996 at the hands of Lt Col. Dave Knoessen. After almost fifteen years of inactivity the aircraft has again been serviced and ground taxi tests were carried out during 2012. It is now airworthy and forms part of the SAAF Museum Flight”.

The caption on the back of this photograph reads "Yours truly finishing off half a bottle of 'brandewyn' in Peter Kohler's cab, parked outside the Hahn's house at 02h30!! Just back from the 'Grand Wazoo' disco, Pretoria, South Africa. Woke the Hahn's up. The early hours of Friday, May 4, 1979".
This picture was shot at the cattle-trap just inside the gate on the long driveway leading up to the Hahn estate east of Pretoria. Although it's totally built up now, it was out in the bush back then. If you look at Google Earth today, realise that the Hahn's father owned everything up to the main roads and down to the lake. A huge and magnificent property.
Peter and I had just spent the evening at The Grand Wazoo, the club where we and our peers played hard, grew up and had a great deal of fun. It was a fantastic place to mispend one's youth, and here is the actual ticket from the night of May 3, 1979! It was Thursday - Ladies Night - and we had been there with Peter's girl, Alisa Payne. No live music - just a DJ on that night. My diary tells me that I had a fine evening dancing with a "24 year old chick". Ahhh...those were the days! This era was the cusp between Punk and New Wave, and we were clearly trying hard to be one with the zeitgeist, hence the tie, pins and badges :-D
This rare shot of me was taken in granny Kohler's Chrysler "Hillman" Vogue car, by a clearly wasted Kohler! I am finishing our half bottle of Richelieu brandy before we crept into the property, scaled the walls to the first floor, and woke Ingrid and Renate Hahn by tapping on their windows! Great fun :-) Peter and Ingrid Hahn were an item and he had introduced me to her older sister, Renate. We made a fine couple and are still great friends to this day.
