A friend of mine is flying for them... I have been trying to call Captain Oscar also know as " kabiesi" in Lagos. He used to work for Nigerian Airways and then Kabo, Freedom Air too I think.
Know him Bossraptor ?

Aero-Service operating C402īs Islanders and CASA 212īs with western crews might be worth a try. They are based mostly out of Pointe Noire. They also operate a sizeable fleet of AN24īs all with CIS crews.

Iīll be on the Brazza side of the river... Look for a B727 with a blue tail. If you see a blondie about 190cm tall. That be me. I drink NīGok but prefer Heini :) :)
