Call of the lion king - 2

Postby Omag 2.0 » Sat Jul 03, 2004 9:43 am

Hi all...

Another day, another flight, venturing deeper and deeper into the African mainland.

Today i flew from the small airfield of Robertson to Upington ( FAUP) a somewhat larger airport... But i got used to the idea i wouldn't see lots off people today...

Tha map, my trip after completing todays flight

Image

It all started in the mountaineous area i landed yesterday...

Take-off in a light haze...

Image

Image

Gradually the landscape evolved to a desert-like, rocky area...

Image

Some hills before we went into a huge plane, the savanna...

Image

After over 2 hours of flight i was glad to see some signs of civilisation...

Image

And i arrived at the town of Upington, approaching the local airport...

Image

Buckeling up and inspecting her before i go into town... Soon we'll take off again, on our way to Namibia...

Not the most exciting of flights, but it gave me a chance to get to know the plane... May proove to be important later on the trip in more remote area's...

Omag-aaaawd ;D
Venturing into the african bush eh?
At least the airspace is free from looneys in Spitfires (Hi Ozzy....)

How long did the actual flight take, I understand it's 2hours+ we talk about here :)

Nice pics and story!
