DXNG/Niamtougou & FOON/Franceville

Hi,

Are there any gotchas ? Any advice ? Know a good hotel for Franceville ?

Thanks a lot !

Franceville runway to the SE, IIRC, has a nice uphill bit approaching the touchdown zone. It was at night and the other thing I remember is the ink black darkness. Not referring to the locals, but its jungle location.
