Some informations

The last thing I heard about these Bac is that one of them ( I don't know which one) will start flying on schedule flight between Lubumbashi and JNB.
Apparently it is Wimbi Dira Airways based in Kinshasa Who will lease this aircraft to ITAB, to operate on this route.
It was supposed to start last week, but everything takes time in D.R.Congo!!!!

I'm going tomorrow to Lubumbashi, I'll try to take some pictures for you!

This aircraft (HS 741) completely burned along the runway has been put there to train the fireman, maybe one day they will use properly their nice firetrucks.
it has been put there I think less than 1 month ago.
I was also quite estonished the first time I saw this plane.
Not very nice to see for the passengers!!!!!

Cheers guys!
