My experience as far south as Sidi Ifni is now 20 years out of date, but some things probably don't change.. .If using Gibralta as a transit stop, flight plan to Tangiers and divert. It kept the Spanish happy.. .. .Take lots of lose change to give to the various Morrocan officials, about four varieties of official at each airport.. .. .Take your own European water for survival.. .. .We found it necessary to relay radio calls via airlines when flying along the coast of the Sahara. Not sure what would have happened if the motor had stopped,but it made us feel better.. .. .What topos are you going to use? Ours consisted mostly of the note 'not surveyed'.. .. .Cat Driver, I would like to hear your much later experiences. Please post them.Thanks.
