DC - Hope you were not serious there! Trading on other peoples' misfortune? I know we all need work but........ .. .I have not heard any news to that effect; indeed, Zimbabwe is having a dreadful drought by all accounts. As if Uncle "Bob" was not enough of a cross to bear.. .. .Given what the poor people in the region have gone through over the last few years, I hope that nature smiles on them for a change.. .. .Regards, H 'n' H

H'n H,. .. .I did not mean it that way.I appolagise if thats how it sounded.I know Mozambique has had a few floods in the previous years and was interested if there is any flying out that way this year.They mostly dropped off food last year with the helicopters.

Hello from sunny Mozambique where we are expecting a scorching Easter - it did rain a bit in Zim while I was last there, but nothing like the previous years (the Mwari is angry with Bob (the nob) so droughts are on the way. Suggest you contact Barry Duff for work possibilities elesewhere in Africa.. .. .(00 27) 82 456 5235

No worries Dynamic Component! You just sounded a bit too keen. Having lived out there for a while and, knowing something of what those poor people have been through, maybe I'm a tad sensitive at times!!!

All the best, H 'n' H

Bob Mugabe is determined to bring the whole region to it's knees with his policy of destroying commercial agriculture which is sure to result in catastrphoic famine for the whole region.
In a drought situation only mechanised, organised agriculture can continue to produce.
The resulting regional chaos is sure to lead to stacks of flying opportunities.
