Clubhouse & Club Badge |
||||||||||||||||
| In 1956 members built the Clubhouse mainly of wood, and it did not take long for the club to outgrow this facility. In 1965 the Municipality built the terminal building, of which the club had the use, but this was by no means a Clubhouse. Plans for a club room were turned down in 1977 by the Department of Transport's Division of Civil Aviation. In 1958 the design of a Club Badge was put to the members and an hour's flying was offered to the person whose design was accepted. This prize went to Roger Murray for his design, which incorporated Mataffin Kop, a prominent landmark in the immediate surroundings of Nelspruit Aerodrome. A flip was also given to an eight year old youngster, T Cheales, who submitted several designs. Back to Club History |
