What a stylish woman.

I think she has been watching "Out of Africa".

"Following in the footsteps of the pioneering flights in the 1920s – we’ll connect some of the most beautiful and evocative points in Africa. Flying low along the Nile from Cairo to Khartoum, past the highlands of Ethiopia before the plains of Kenya and the home of African aviation in Nairobi. Then off again past Kilimanjaro into the Serengeti – and on to the spice island of Zanzibar. After a short pause to enjoy the Indian ocean, we continue, crossing Zambia to Victoria Falls, before continuing to Bulawayo in Zimbabwe. Our final days take us into, and across, stunning South Africa – to the Cape, journey’s end."

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.

Those old Tiger Moths apparently are quite easy & simple to fly.
I had one flying lesson in a 172 Cessna. That was fun, however I did not take off, nor land the plane. I had the opportunity to land it, but
elected not to and asked the instructor to land it. Brought it around to final, then chickened out. I mean, it was only a 1 hour lesson.
I've flown a lot of RC stuff, but this was somewhat different.
Oh yeah - I've crashed a lot of RC planes, too, almost every one I ever built and some of them, a couple times.

Well it was my first flight. I WAS offered to take it off, was quite simple. Just hold the plane straight, and ease slowly on the "accelerator". Slowly lift. All done by instruction of course.

I think landing is more dangerous.

I have taken off and landed plenty of WW1 biplanes in Age of Aces or some such WW1 air battle computer game. Even performed the Ludendorf manoeuvres to take out Britischer aircraft. The pity of the game was I could not machine gun trenches! Fun games flying WW1 biplanes but does not have the wind in one's hair.

Generally flying a simple aircraft is easier than driving a car when conditions are good. The take off is far easier in a nose wheel plane, a tail dragger takes a bit more skill and judgement. Landing is a totally different story. I had a private pilots unrestricted licence with aerobatic endorsement. Flying became to expensive to maintain once I was married. Still miss it.

I would have given my eye teeth to have flown one of those Tigers on that trip.

In French, when one helps big portions of food but doesn’t clean his/her plate, one says « he/she has bigger eyes than stomach ». In this case I would say that the lady has a libido bigger than her mouth or vagina, depending on the way she would dream to enjoy the elephant’s treat.

well, I am not 100% sure this is a real animal

I would not sit between elephants feet, who know what he will doing next and trample you to death.

well, common tourists do the most foolish things.

Wonderful. Marriage stopped a lot of "stuff" for me. Piloting an aeroplane was not one of them. LOL - I wish, though.
I "almost" tried for a pilot's license back in Smithers in the late 70's. Had an opportunity to buy a Taylor craft with both wheels and floats for $3,500.00.
Just married and struggling to make a living. So- no pilot's license and no aeroplane.

That's pretty impressive. And also SAD!

Rediscover your wings!

What did you do, or use your aerobatic licence for?
