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



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

Take-off in a light haze...





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



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



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



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



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...

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!

Second leg 2,3 hrs....

And please, leave the Africans to there rest, don't set Ozzy loose on em!  

Nice shots!
