Toronto to Toronto......Part 43
Posted: Sun Aug 29, 2004 3:06 pmAfter Davy had his own short version of a flight RTW but he had to stay in Cana, Benin. We both then had a good look at the plane's condition now that we have all these tools available for us to use 
. The Twin Bonanza is in top shape and ready for our next voyage to Nigeria's port Harcourt . Here we are taking off from Cana ;D.
More of Benin's beautiful scenery
.
Getting closer and closer to the Benin and Nigerian border
.
Last major airport in Benin, it's the Murtala Muhammed Airport, isn't that a biggie ;D
One of many breathtaking lakes in Nigeria as we approach Port Harcourt Airport
.
Noon, and a safe landing in a beautiful valley.
Isn't that luxury, having a gas pump in front of your own hangar (too bad we still have to pay for the gas
) I have to check some stuff in my office and send an e-mail to my wife to let her know where i am and what i'm doing ::). We do have electricity in the office and hangar, but it seems that they still need to invent running water in Africa, we only have a small hand pump in the back 
. Not realy a problem for Davy he doesn't like washing himself anyway(PU, YUK) 
. When i came out of the office i noticed that there were a lot flying insects buzzing around, at first i didn't mind it too much because we AREin Africa 
. Then we saw a plane landing..........i wonder what it is 
.
Well what do you think of that, it's my grandpappy with one of his re-painted Mustangs, isn't she a beauty
. Granddad said that he was just dropping it off, and that somebody is picking him up to take him home 
. I wished that he could stay but at 75 he's still a very busy businessman (i wish that i'll be that busy when i'm at his age). Davy and i are going to take the Mustang into the hangar and give her a thourough check, and maybe later we can have a test flight to see how she performs, if we can get rid of these annoying flying bugs that are always buzzing around our heads Bzzzzzzzzzz .
Wanna see our test flight with the souped up Mustang, then stay tuned and you will see it happen before your own eyes . Happy flying
