Security at the airport is better than most, the lifestyle and safety in BJL is good...nice place...no probs...hard going to work there typical african bureaucracy and lack of action...everything takes weeks rather than days...

Fair few European/British expats living there, nice crowd on the whole...plenty of holiday makers passing through...overall one of the better postings in Africa.

No aviation whatsoever, no flying club, no private acft, few microlights thats's it...all the Gambian operators appear to be flag of convenience and no based at Yundum.
