AFAM Bush Pilot School..Course I...a Mission
Posted: Wed Apr 01, 2009 5:07 pmBartholemew Frangazza was eventually laid off as captain of AlpesAir Airlines since he was caught chasing women
in every stop in the shuttle schedule. Sixteen timeS was enough for management and off he went. After spending
eight months doing nothing and spending all the money he had, he meet Obungo StubbiO, bush pilot from the Republic of the Congo.
Obungo proposed to him to join him in developing a Bush Pilot School in his country. With nothing to loose
and very eager to fly again, Bartholomew accepted.
After two years the AFAM Bush Pilot school in the jungle of the Congo has become the leader in the training of
future Bush pilots in Africa and other countries. Pilots from all over have graduated from its classes and have,
at least some of them, made many dangerous bush flights and still do so. How you join or get in the school?...
Joining:
1) Pilots must have at least 20 hours of total VFR flight
2) Pilots must like mosquitoes, slimy bugs and women galore since there are many in and around the school ( the Mosquitoes and bugs that is).
First Time Curriculum:
3) Must have made at least 3 short field take offs and 2 short field landings(??????)
4) Fly at least the forsaken Cessna 172, 182 or other similiar aircraft.
5) Make with a instructor several landings in Bokuro
in every stop in the shuttle schedule. Sixteen timeS was enough for management and off he went. After spending
