Umsizi: Hi Schmore

This cache appears to be in need of owner intervention. I'm temporarily disabling it, to give the owner an opportunity to check on the cache, and take whatever action is necessary.

Please enable your cache by selecting enable on the right hand side of the listing , once the cache has been replaced/repaired, or checked that it is still in play.

The Geocache Maintenance Guideline explains a CO's responsibility towards checking and maintaining the cache when problems are reported. Caches that have been archived for lack of maintenance will not be unarchived. This is explained in the Help Center

Please respond to this situation in a timely manner (i.e., within 30 days) to prevent the cache from being archived for non-responsiveness. If you plan on repairing this cache,but cannot get to it within 30 days, please log a note to the cache page (not email) to let the community know

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.
