Hi, this is my first post on pprune so please be gentle with me. I'm making plans to come out to Maun next month, but I was wondering about the quality of the maintenance out there? Are the aircraft maintained to the same standard that I could expect in Canada (I've also done some flying in England). Im particulalry concerned due to the harsh conditions that the aircraft operate in. Have there been many problems or accidents caused by poor maintenance?

On a slightly different subject, I noticed that a British company is making a TV programme about flying in Maun. I previously considered working in TV so I was intrigued by this. What are people's thoughts on it and what do the operators think about it? Are they already there and if so are the filming particular individuals or are they sticking to one of the operators? I would maybe like to be included in that if they are also filming non-British people (though my Mom's family is from England so I am part British at least).
