And amazingly that was how many of these old timer planes got to East Africa and even Southern Africa in the old days. Flown all the way!

Hopping across Europe. Over Egtpy. The Sudan, Uganda then Kenya.

One should know how to fly it after all those hours!

I read an account where on PH was asked to drive a truck from Europe across North Africa to Kenya. The truck to be used to build a safari hunting car.

I would love to learn to fly, and acquire an open cockpit plane. What great fun that would be. I have piloted a plane to take off twice!

But not landed as a pilot.
