Knagur Green: Due to no response from the CO after the request to maintain or replace the cache, I am archiving it to, stop it showing on the listings and/or to create place for the geocaching community.

The Geocache Maintenance guideline explains a CO's responsibility towards checking and maintaining the cache when problems are reported.

Please note that if geocaches are archived by a reviewer or Geocaching HQ for lack of maintenance, they are not eligible for unarchival. This is explained in the Help Center

Geocache Description:

This is a cache that was created to be part of the Gauteng Power Series (GPS). The Gauteng Power Series (GPS) was created to offer Cachers the opportunity to achieve personal caching goals by using Grand Personal Selection (GPS) to decide how to hunt and find these caches, all in one day, or one by one over a period of time.Remember to Go Physically Safely (GPS) when you Grope, Peek and Search (GPS)

As this stretch of the (GPS) is near the Lanseria Airport, we thought a plane theme is in order.

The Impala Mk I

Impala Mk I started production in 1966 and was used for combat and training purposes. There were 165 of them built, 40 Italian and 125 South African. They typically flew at 550–650 km/h at a height of 15 m to avoid the risk of being shot down or even sighted by AA defences. The aircraft had many advantages over high performance jets. Although slower, it could operate from primitive, short airfields and strike within minutes.
