The B707 was a frequent nocturnal visitor to Dr Savimbi during the war. The 707 transported diesel into dirt strips at night illuminated by a flarepath. No approach aids. Happened every night for a long time. Africa is not for sissies. Transafrik also operated B727's into dirt strips at night for over 12 years. Garmin GPS letdown to 100'
