\u2019n Plaaslike familie is in rou gedompel nadat hul geliefde patriarg in \u2019n vliegongeluk dood is. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Willem Charl Myburgh, \u2019n geliefde eggenoot, pa en oupa van Gordonsbaai, is in die ouderdom van 66 dood toe sy ligte vliegtuig verlede Dinsdag (29 Augustus) op \u2019n plaas buite Robertson neergestort het. Di\u00e9 Helderberger was \u2019n ervare vlie\u00ebnier wat dekades lank as vliegtuigtegnikus gewerk en n\u00e1 sy aftrede voortgegaan het om sy passie vir vlieg as \u2019n stokperdjie uit te leef.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Myburgh se dogter, Ester Jones, het in \u2019n telefoniese onderhoud herroep dat haar geliefde pa op daardie noodlottige oggend vroeg met sy tweesitplek-vastevlerkvliegtuig uit Worcester na Swellendam gevlieg het vir \u2019n afspraak. Jones het ges\u00ea haar pa het die vliegtuig in Mei vanjaar aangeskaf en die aankoop in ligte luim as \u2019n geval van \u201cbig boys, big toys<\/em>\u201d beskryf. Sy het bygevoeg Myburgh se denkwyse was \u201cWhy drive if you can fly<\/em>\u201d en hy het nie juis rede nodig gehad om \u2019n vlug aan te pak nie. \u201cMy pa wou net vlieg, en jy moes deel wees daarvan,\u201d het sy ges\u00ea.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Jones het voorts ges\u00ea \u2019n plaaswerker het die vliegtuig na bewering oomblikke voordat dit neergestort het, op pad terug in die lug gesien. \u201cDie werker het toevallig opgekyk en die vliegtuig glo uit die lug sien tol voordat dit naby \u2019n le\u00eb perdestal neergestort het. Daar was na bewering \u2019n klein ontploffing en toe bars die vliegtuig in vlamme uit. Die brand is deur plaaswerkers geblus totdat nooddienste op die voorval gereageer het,\u201d het sy vertel. \u201cMy pa was baie veiligheidsbewus en het geoefen om \u2019n vliegtuig in die moeilikste omstandighede te land \u2013 selfs in die ergste scenario. Ons glo en kan met vertroue s\u00ea dat hy die vliegtuig sou beheer as hy kon.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n Volgens Jones het haar pa as \u2019n vliegtuigtegnikus gewerk en 20 jaar aan die Suid-Afrikaanse Lugdiens (SAL) gewy voordat hy by die Hongkongse maatskappy Haeco aangesluit het. Hier het hy vir 18 jaar gewerk. <\/p>\n\n\n\n Hy het n\u00e1 sy aftrede sy private vlieglisensie asook sy kommersi\u00eble vlieglisensie verwerf. Hy het een keer \u2019n maand as aandiens vlie\u00ebnier by die Stellenbosch-vliegklub afgelos.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Volgens Sisa Majola, \u2019n woordvoerder van die Suid-Afrikaanse Burgerlugvaartowerheid (Sacaa), is die ondersoek-afdeling in kennis gestel van die ongeluk waarin die Tri Cubby-vastevlerkvliegtuig Dinsdag naby die Robertson-lughawe betrokke was en die alleen-insittende noodlottige beserings opgedoen het.<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201cDie vliegtuig het van die Worcester-vliegveld na die Swellendam-vliegveld opgestyg, en die ongeluk het gebeur terwyl hy omstreeks 12:00 na die vertrekpunt teruggekeer het,\u201d het Majola ges\u00ea.<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201c \u2019n Span ondersoekers is aangestel om bewyse en meer inligting in te samel, wat sal help om die grootte sowel as die omvang van die ondersoek te definieer. \u2019n Voorlopige verslag sal binne 30 dae n\u00e1 die dag van die voorval uitgereik word.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n Jones het ges\u00ea die familie is n\u00e1 11:00 met nuus oor die noodlottige voorval gebel. <\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201cOmstanders het tussen die oorblyfsels op \u2019n stukkie van \u2019n besigheidskaartjie met my pa se naam en kontaknommer asook \u2019n gedeelte van \u2019n rekening met my ma se besonderhede afgekom en twee en twee bymekaargesit.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n Volgens Jones wag die familie op die doodsertifikaat om begrafnisre\u00eblings te kan begin tref. Hulle het Vrydag DNS-monsters vir die formele uitkenning weggestuur. Volgens Jones het die lykskouing bevestig die ongeluk is nie weens gesonheidsredes veroorsaak nie. \u201cTerwyl amptelike verslae van die lugvaartowerheid nog uit is, is die vluggemeenskap se bespiegelings dat dit moontlik weens \u2019n skielike afwaartse lugstroom veroorsaak is.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n Jones het haar pa verder beskryf as iemand wat baie uitgaande was en oral vriende gemaak het. \u201cHy was nederig en deernisvol. God was deel van sy lewe asook die mooi pad wat hy saam met ander gestap het. Hy het \u2019n groot impak gemaak en almal wat weens die voorval na die familie uitgereik het, kan hiervan getuig,\u201d het Jones gedeel. <\/p>\n\n\n\n Jones het voorts ges\u00ea sy en haar ouer suster, Maringa van Zyl, asook hul kinders, sal hul pa en oupa veral as die liefdevolle gesinsman onthou wat fisiek dinge saam met sy familie gedoen en geleer het.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Jones en Van Zyl koester veral hul eerste, maar Myburgh se tiende, Argus-fietstoer, wat hulle saam baasgeraak het. <\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201cMy pa was avontuurlustig en het \u2013 wanneer hy nie \u2019n wyntjie en \u2019n sonsondergang geniet het nie \u2013 fiets getrap. Hy was ook \u2019n ywerige skubaduiker en het meer onlangs \u2019n liefde vir kanovaart ontwikkel.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n As leermeester van die lewe het Myburgh ook baie jong vlie\u00ebniers as mentor onder die vlerk geneem. <\/p>\n\n\n\n Myburgh word oorleef deur sy vrou van byna 45 jaar, Woudene (65), hul dogters Ester Jones (41) en Maringa van Zyl (43), skoonseun Peter Jones (42), en vyf kleinkinders. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" \u2019n Plaaslike familie is in rou gedompel nadat hul geliefde patriarg in \u2019n vliegongeluk dood is.Op pad terug verongeluk<\/h1>\n\n\n\n
