If we had the time of course we could do it, but in this business who has!
I am familiar with the processes and if I have a bit of notice I do indeed fire off an AFTN message and get what I need but in my particular operation I get 6 hours notice to go to sub-Saharan Africa and I as routine go to the agents for this, my interest is the way in which the agencies get these permits done, I guessed it would be a contact on the ground earning commission but I do not know the way they do it.
Thanks to all for info
