Boeta, i agree with BOB3213 - SWAKOP is an AWESOME place!!!!!
I also DID some time there, and made FRIENDS for life!!! The flying is GREAT, also learned alot the hard way,remember those bloody hot +40'C days,MAUW out of Epupa and Opuwo.......eish!!!
Ex-SWAKOP pilots are highly rated in the 'contract' world today.
How can you trade Swakops social life for W'hoek???? (2 inni bors 1 inni kop) I remember the days, when the C210's pull in after a long days work, and the SKYDIVING CLUB becomes the 1st meeting point for a TAFEL LAGER or TEN, not to mention the JAGERMEISTER. The misty Swakop becomes heaven later at night, where all the European backpakers meet in town at some local BAR.Those were the days!!
The afternoon EXPEDITIONS, Dune-boarding,Fishing,Biking in the dunes, a Beer at the Golf Club,German carnavals and to seal it all, a BRAAI in the Swakop river. Hell, i miss those days!!!!!!!
