Entebee

Many years ago, 1980/82 or there abouts, I had the opportunity to fly an NDB approach into Entebee during one of its notorious downpours. I still cannot get over the depth of the standing water on the runway.

The aircraft was only a small piston twin, Beech Baron, but the water was so deep it splashed forward from the wheels to where you could see it from the cockpit.

Just my thoughts.
