Flew a Mil Mi8-MTV (Mi17) from Cape Town, South Africa to Khartoum, Sudan. via Uppington (SA), Gabarone (Botswana), Bulawayo (Zim), Ndola (Zambia), Mbeya, Tabora, Mwanza (Tanzinia), Entebe (Uganda), Juba, Rumbek, El Obeid, Khartoum (Sudan). Took us 5 days. Some great scenery. The usual negotiations to continue without a few days in some cell, $$$$$, and of course avoid being shot down by waring factions through DRC and along the Ugandan/Sudan border. One of those trips that is a lot more fun after the fact.
